evolutionary models for the growth of the Web graph and
other networks that give rise to power-law
distributions. These models are based on the notion of
preferential attachment, leading to the ``rich get
richer'' phenomenon. We present a generalization of the
basic model by allowing deletion of individual links
and show that it also gives rise to a power-law
distribution. We derive the mean-field equations for
this stochastic model and show that, by examining a
snapshot of the distribution at the steady state of the
model, we are able to determine the extent to which
link deletion has taken place and estimate the
probability of deleting a link. Applying our model to
actual Web graph data provides evidence of the extent
to which link deletion has occurred. We also discuss a
problem that frequently arises in estimating the
power-law exponent from empirical data and a few
possible methods for dealing with this, indicating our
preferred approach. Using this approach our analysis of
the data suggests a power-law exponent of approximately
2.15 for the distribution of inlinks in the Web graph,
rather than the widely published value of 2.1.",

that computes behavior profiles or models of user email
accounts. These models may be used for a multitude of
tasks including forensic analyses and detection tasks
of value to law enforcement and intelligence agencies,
as well for as other typical tasks such as virus and
spam detection. To demonstrate the power of the
methods, we focus on the application of these models to
detect the early onset of a viral propagation without
``content-base '' (or signature-based) analysis in
common use in virus scanners. We present several
experiments using real email from 15 users with
injected simulated viral emails and describe how the
combination of different behavior models improves
overall detection rates. The performance results vary
depending upon parameter settings, approaching 99 \%
true positive (TP) (percentage of viral emails caught)
in general cases and with 0.38 \% false positive (FP)
(percentage of emails with attachments that are
mislabeled as viral). The models used for this study
are based upon volume and velocity statistics of a
user's email rate and an analysis of the user's
(social) cliques revealed in the person's email
behavior. We show by way of simulation that virus
propagations are detectable since viruses may emit
emails at rates different than human behavior suggests
is normal, and email is directed to groups of
recipients in ways that violate the users' typical
communications with their social groups.",

to stop the illegal distribution of copyrighted and
illicit material via the network. Instead of having
moderators check the packages at upload time, illegal
content is removed and its uploader's access to the
network permanently revoked only when the violation is
discovered. Other protective measures defend the GDN
against internal and external attacks to its
availability. By exploiting the replication of the
software and using fault-tolerant server software, the
Globe Distribution Network achieves high availability.

towards so-called smart devices, such as PDAs, cell

This makes them ill-suited for public key signatures.
This article explores practical and conceptual
implications of using Server-Aided Signatures (SAS) for
these devices. SAS is a signature method that relies on
partially-trusted servers for generating (normally
expensive) public key signatures for regular users.
Although the primary goal is to aid small,
resource-limited devices in signature generation, SAS
also offers fast certificate revocation, signature
causality and reliable timestamping. It also has some
interesting features such as built-in attack detection
for users and DoS resistance for servers. Our
experimental results also validate the feasibility of
deploying SAS on smart devices.",

is called, a site-invariant feature. These features
likely remain unchanged in Web pages from different

called a site-dependent feature. These features are
different in the Web pages collected from different Web

derived site-invariant features will be exploited to
automatically seek a new set of training examples in
the new unseen target site. Both the site-dependent

extensive experiments on a set of real-world Web sites

of security is becoming an increasingly challenging
problem in no small part due to scaling up of measures
such as number of users, protocols, applications,
network elements, topological constraints, and
functionality expectations.\par
In this article, we discuss scalability challenges for
traditional access-control mechanisms at the

requirements for authorization services in large-scale

these requirements and investigate the current design
options for a scalable access-control

We argue that the key design options to achieve
scalability are the choice of the representation of
access control policy, the distribution mechanism for
policy, and the choice of the access-rights revocation
scheme. Although these ideas have been considered in
the past, current access-control systems in use
continue to use simpler but restrictive architectural
models. With this article, we hope to influence the
design of future access-control systems towards more

abstract = "XML compression has gained prominence recently because
it counters the disadvantage of the verbose
representation XML gives to data. In many applications,
such as data exchange and data archiving, entirely
compressing and decompressing a document is acceptable.
In other applications, where queries must be run over
compressed documents, compression may not be beneficial
since the performance penalty in running the query
processor over compressed data outweighs the data
compression benefits. While balancing the interests of
compression and query processing has received
significant attention in the domain of relational
databases, these results do not immediately translate
to XML data.\par
In this article, we address the problem of embedding
compression into XML databases without degrading query
performance. Since the setting is rather different from
relational databases, the choice of compression
granularity and compression algorithms must be
revisited. Query execution in the compressed domain
must also be rethought in the framework of XML query
processing due to the richer structure of XML data.
Indeed, a proper storage design for the compressed data
plays a crucial role here.\par
The XQ ue C system ( XQ uery Processor and C ompressor)
covers a wide set of XQuery queries in the compressed
domain and relies on a workload-based cost model to
perform the choices of the compression granules and of
their corresponding compression algorithms. As a
consequence, XQueC provides efficient query processing
on compressed XML data. An extensive experimental
assessment is presented, showing the effectiveness of
the cost model, the compression ratios, and the query
execution times.",

the Web is to discover resources of interest. The
hypermedia paradigm provides a way of overlaying a set

existing hypermedia approaches primarily develop
mechanisms to enable resource sharing in a fairly
static, centralized way. Recent developments in
distributed computing, on the other hand, introduced
peer-to-peer (P2P) computing that is notable for
employing distributed resources to perform a critical
function in a more dynamic and ad-hoc scenario. We
investigate the feasibility and potential benefits of
bringing together the P2P paradigm with the concept of
hypermedia link services to implement ad-hoc resource
sharing on the Web. This is accomplished by utilizing a
web-based Distributed Dynamic Link Service (DDLS) as a
testbed and addressing the issues arising from the
design, implementation, and enhancement of the service.
Our experimental result reveals the behavior and
performance of the semantics-based resource discovery
in DDLS and demonstrates that the proposed enhancing

bidders submit bids at predetermined discrete bid

academic literature of optimal auction design deals
almost solely with continuous bid auctions. As a
result, there is little practical guidance as to how an
auctioneer, seeking to maximize its revenue, should
determine the number and value of these discrete bid
levels, and it is this omission that is addressed here.
To this end, a model of an ascending price English
auction with discrete bid levels is considered. An
expression for the expected revenue of this auction is
derived and used to determine numerical and analytical
solutions for the optimal bid levels in the case of
uniform and exponential bidder's valuation
distributions. Finally, in order to develop an
intuitive understanding of how these optimal bid levels
are distributed, the limiting case where the number of
discrete bid levels is large is considered, and an
analytical expression for their distribution is

of semantic Web services, which extend standard Web
services with semantic annotations. Current discovery
solutions were developed in the context of automatic
service composition. Thus, the ``client'' of the
discovery procedure is an automated computer program
rather than a human, with little, if any, tolerance to
inexact results. However, in the real world, services
which might be semantically distanced from each other
are glued together using manual coding. In this
article, we propose a new retrieval model for semantic
Web services, with the objective of simplifying service
discovery for human users. The model relies on simple
and extensible keyword-based query language and enables
efficient retrieval of approximate results, including
approximate service compositions. Since representing
all possible compositions and all approximate concept
references can result in an exponentially-sized index,
we investigate clustering methods to provide a scalable
mechanism for service indexing. Results of experiments,
designed to evaluate our indexing and query methods,
show that satisfactory approximate search is feasible
with efficient processing time.",

widely used in distance education applications to
deliver the captured video courses to a large number of
online students. By allowing peers serving each other
in the network, P2P technology overcomes many
limitations in the traditional client-server paradigm
to achieve user and bandwidth scalabilities. However,
existing systems do not perform well when the number of
online students increases, and the system performance
degrades seriously. One of the reasons is that the
construction of the peer overlay in existing P2P
systems has not considered the underlying physical
network topology and can cause serious topology
mismatch between the P2P overlay network and the
physical network. The topology mismatch problem brings
great link stress (unnecessary traffic) in the Internet
infrastructure and greatly degrades the system
performance. In this article, we address this problem
and propose a locality-aware P2P overlay construction
method, called Nearcast, which builds an efficient
overlay multicast tree by letting each peer node choose
physically closer nodes as its logical children.\par
We have conducted extensive simulations to evaluate the
performance of Nearcast in comparison with the existing
RTT and NICE protocols. Also, Nearcast has been
deployed on a wide-area network testbed to delivery
video coursed to about 7200 users distributed across
100 collages in 32 cities in China. The experimental
results show that Nearcast leads to lower link stress

Specifically, we manage services not only as

needs coming from the applications, by composing
services properly according to QoS requirements at
application setup time, and performing continuous
maintenance at application runtime seamlessly. Our
service management framework is scalable in two
dimensions: network size and application's client
population size. Specifically, the framework employs a
decentralized management solution that scales to large
network size, and explores resource sharing in
one-to-many group-based applications by means of

SWORD allows users to describe desired resources as a

along with the utility that the application derives
from specified ranges of metric values. This design
gives users the flexibility to find geographically
distributed resources for applications that are
sensitive to both node and network characteristics, and
allows the system to rank acceptable configurations

Rather than evaluating a single implementation of
SWORD, we explore a variety of architectural designs
that deliver the required functionality in a scalable
and highly available manner. We discuss the trade-offs
of using a centralized architecture as compared to a
fully decentralized design to perform wide-area
resource discovery. To summarize our results, we found
that a centralized architecture based on 4-node server
cluster sites at network-peering facilities outperforms
a decentralized DHT-based resource discovery
infrastructure with respect to query latency for all
but the smallest number of sites. However, although a
centralized architecture shows significant promise in
stable environments, we find that our decentralized
implementation has acceptable performance and also
benefits from the DHT's self-healing properties in more
volatile environments. We evaluate the advantages and

the text information on Web pages, while little

advantage: the time for ``reading'' an image is as
little as that for reading one or two words, while the
information brought by an image is as much as that
conveyed by a whole passage of text. In order to
exploit the advantages of imagery, a novel interactive
Web search framework is proposed, where {\em image

provided, along with the text snippets, to the user for
result presentation and relevance feedback, as well as
being presented alone to the user for image suggestion.
User studies show that it is more convenient for the

contribution of our work is to demonstrate the
feasibility and benefits of overbooking resources in
shared Internet platforms. Since an accurate estimate
of an application's resource needs is necessary when
overbooking resources, we present techniques to profile
applications on dedicated nodes, possibly while in
service, and use these profiles to guide the placement
of application components onto shared nodes. We then
propose techniques to overbook cluster resources in a
controlled fashion. We outline an empirical approach to
determine the degree of overbooking that allows a
platform to achieve improvements in revenue while
providing performance guarantees to Internet
applications. We show how our techniques can be
combined with commonly used QoS resource allocation
mechanisms to provide application isolation and
performance guarantees at run-time. We implement our
techniques in a Linux cluster and evaluate them using
common server applications. We find that the efficiency
(and consequently revenue) benefits from controlled
overbooking of resources can be dramatic. Specifically,
we find that overbooking resources by as little as 1\%
we can increase the utilization of the cluster by a
factor of two, and a 5\% overbooking yields a
300--500\% improvement, while still providing useful
resource guarantees to applications.",

However, current approaches have typically assumed
service descriptions are accurate and deterministic,
and so have neglected to account for the fact that
services in these open systems are inherently

failures, software bugs and competition for services
may regularly lead to execution delays or even service
failures. To address this problem, the process of
provisioning services needs to be performed in a more
flexible manner than has so far been considered, in
order to proactively deal with failures and to recover
workflows that have partially failed. To this end, we
devise and present a heuristic strategy that varies the
provisioning of services according to their predicted
performance. Using simulation, we then benchmark our

analytical solutions allowing us to compute the income
from a single auction, or the income per unit time from
a repeated sequence of auctions. A variety of
single-auction models are studied, including English
and Vickrey auctions, and the income per unit time is
derived as a function of other parameters, including
the rate of arrival of bids, the seller's decision
time, the value of the good, and the ``rest time'' of
the seller between successive auctions. We illustrate
the results via numerical examples. We also introduce a
model for networked auctions where bidders can
circulate among a set of interconnected auctions which
we call the Mobile Bidder Model (MBM). We obtain an
analytical solution for the MBM under the
assumption,which we call the ``active bidders
assumption,'' that activities that are internal to an
auction (bids and sales) are much more frequent than
changes that occur in the number of bidders at each
auction.",

survey made by Technorati, there are about 75,000 new

is difficult and time consuming for a blog reader to

blog readers in browsing the coolest and newest blog
posts of their interests by automatically clustering
the most relevant stories. PBR aims to make a user's
potential favorite topics always ranked higher than
those nonfavorite ones. This is accomplished in the
following steps. First, the system collects and
provides a unified incremental index of posts coming
from different blogs. Then, an incremental clustering
algorithm with a flexible half-bounded window of
observation is proposed to satisfy the requirements of
online processing. It learns people's personalized
reading preferences to present a user with a final
reading list. The experimental results show that the
proposed incremental clustering algorithm is effective
and efficient, and the personalization of the PBR

fairness in Internet-scale networks. This problem has
several interesting instances encountered in different
applications, ranging from assessing the distribution
of load between network nodes for load balancing
purposes, to measuring node utilization for optimal
resource exploitation, and to guiding autonomous
decisions of nodes in networks built with market-based
economic principles. Although some metrics have been
proposed, particularly for assessing load balancing
algorithms, they fall short. We first study the
appropriateness of various known and previously
proposed statistical metrics for measuring distribution
fairness. We put forward a number of required
characteristics for appropriate metrics. We propose and
comparatively study the appropriateness of the Gini
coefficient ($G$) for this task. Our study reveals as
most appropriate the metrics of $G$, the fairness index
({\em FI\/}), and the coefficient of variation ($ C_V$)
in this order. Second, we develop six distributed
sampling algorithms to estimate metrics online
efficiently, accurately, and scalably. One of these
algorithms ({\em 2-PRWS\/}) is based on two effective
optimizations of a basic algorithm, and the other two
(the sequential sampling algorithm, {\em LBS-HL}, and
the clustered sampling one, {\em EBSS\/}) are novel,
developed especially to estimate $G$. Third, we show
how these metrics, and especially $G$, can be readily
utilized online by higher-level algorithms, which can
now know when to best intervene to correct unfair
distributions (in particular, load imbalances). We
conclude with a comprehensive experimentation which
comparatively evaluates both the various proposed
estimation algorithms and the three most appropriate
metrics ($G$, $ C_V$, and $ F I$). Specifically, the
evaluation quantifies the efficiency (in terms of
number of the messages and a latency indicator),
precision, and accuracy achieved by the proposed
algorithms when estimating the competing fairness
metrics. The central conclusion is that the proposed
metric, $G$, can be estimated with a small number of
messages and latency, regardless of the skew of the
underlying distribution.",

We develop {\em BogusBiter}, a unique client-side

relatively large number of bogus credentials into a
suspected phishing site. BogusBiter conceals a victim's
real credential among bogus credentials, and moreover,
it enables a legitimate Web site to identify stolen
credentials in a timely manner. Leveraging the power of
client-side automatic phishing detection techniques,
BogusBiter is complementary to existing preventive
anti-phishing approaches. We implemented BogusBiter as
an extension to the Firefox 2 Web browser, and
evaluated its efficacy through real experiments on both
phishing and legitimate Web sites. Our experimental
results indicate that it is promising to use BogusBiter

the area of training users to recognize those attacks.
Our research focuses on educating users about phishing

identified a number of challenges for end-user security
education in general and anti-phishing education in
particular: users are not motivated to learn about
security; for most users, security is a secondary task;
it is difficult to teach people to identify security
threats without also increasing their tendency to
misjudge nonthreats as threats. Keeping these
challenges in mind, we developed an email-based

an online game called ``Anti-Phishing Phil'' that

abstract = "In this article, we describe a new approach that gives
an explicit probabilistic interpretation for social
networks. In particular, we focus on the observation
that many existing Web-based trust-inference algorithms
conflate the notions of ``trust'' and ``confidence,''
and treat the amalgamation of the two concepts to
compute the trust value associated with a social
relationship. Unfortunately, the result of such an
algorithm that merges trust and confidence is not a
trust value, but rather a new variable in the inference
process. Thus, it is hard to evaluate the outputs of
such an algorithm in the context of trust
inference.\par
This article first describes a formal probabilistic
network model for social networks that allows us to
address that issue. Then we describe SUNNY, a new trust
inference algorithm that uses probabilistic sampling to
separately estimate trust information and our
confidence in the trust estimate and use the two values
in order to compute an estimate of trust based on only
those information sources with the highest confidence
estimates.\par
We present an experimental evaluation of SUNNY. In our
experiments, SUNNY produced more accurate trust
estimates than the well-known trust inference algorithm
TidalTrust, demonstrating its effectiveness. Finally,
we discuss the implications these results will have on
systems designed for personalizing content and making

much sought-after digital commodity. However, as the
need for more refined Internet demographics has grown,
so too has the tension between privacy and utility.
Unfortunately, current techniques lean too much in
favor of functional requirements over protecting the
privacy of users. For example, the most prominent
proposals for measuring the relative popularity of a
Web site depend on the deployment of client-side
measurement agents that are generally perceived as
infringing on users' privacy, thereby limiting their
wide-scale adoption. Moreover, the client-side nature
of these techniques also makes them susceptible to
various manipulation tactics that undermine the
integrity of their results. In this article, we propose
a new estimation technique that uses DNS cache probing
to infer the density of clients accessing a given
service. Compared to earlier techniques, our scheme is
less invasive as it does not reveal user-specific
traits, and is more robust against manipulation. We
demonstrate the flexibility of our approach through two
important security applications. First, we illustrate
how our scheme can be used as a lightweight technique
for measuring and verifying the relative popularity
rank of different Web sites. Second, using data from
several hundred botnets, we apply our technique to
indirectly measure the infected population of this

advantage of the service with just a few mouse clicks,

on anomaly detection and allows monitoring the

an advertiser bids on a set of keywords relevant to
his/her product or service. When one of these keywords
matches a user search string, the ad is then considered
for display among sponsored search results. Advertisers
compete for positions in which their ads appear, as
higher slots typically result in more user clicks. All
existing position allocating mechanisms charge more per
click for a higher slot. Therefore, an advertiser must
decide whether to bid high and receive more, but more
expensive, clicks.\par
In this work, we propose a novel methodology for
building forecasting landscapes relating an individual
advertiser bid to the expected click-through rate
and/or the expected daily click volume. Displaying such
landscapes is currently offered as a service to
advertisers by all major search engine providers. Such
landscapes are expected to be instrumental in helping
the advertisers devise their bidding strategies.\par
We propose a {\em triply\/} monotone regression
methodology. We start by applying the current
state-of-the-art monotone regression solution. We then
propose to condition on the ad position and to estimate
the bid-position and position-click effects separately.
While the latter translates into a standard monotone
regression problem, we devise a novel solution to the
former based on approximate maximum likelihood. We show
that our proposal significantly outperforms the
standard monotone regression solution, while the latter
similarly improves upon routinely used ad-hoc
methods.\par

abstract = "Firewalls are the cornerstones of the security
infrastructure for most enterprises. They have been
widely deployed for protecting private networks. The
quality of the protection provided by a firewall
directly depends on the quality of its policy (i.e.,
configuration). Due to the lack of tools for analyzing
firewall policies, many firewalls used today have
policy errors. A firewall policy error either creates
security holes that will allow malicious traffic to
sneak into a private network or blocks legitimate
traffic and disrupts normal business processes, which
in turn could lead to irreparable, if not tragic,
consequences. A major cause of policy errors are policy
changes. Firewall policies often need to be changed as
networks evolve and new threats emerge. Users behind a
firewall often request the firewall administrator to
modify rules to allow or protect the operation of some
services. In this article, we first present the theory
and algorithms for firewall policy change-impact
analysis. Our algorithms take as input a firewall
policy and a proposed change, then output the accurate
impact of the change. Thus, a firewall administrator
can verify a proposed change before committing it. We
implemented our firewall change-impact analysis
algorithms, and tested them on both real-life and
synthetic firewall policies. The experimental results
show that our algorithms are effective in terms of
ensuring firewall policy correctness and efficient in
terms of computing the impact of policy changes. Thus,
our tool can be practically used in the iterative
process of firewall policy design and maintenance.
Although the focus of this article is on firewalls, the
change-impact analysis algorithms proposed in this
article are not limited to firewalls. Rather, they can
be applied to other rule-based systems, such as router
access control lists (ACLs), as well.",

prevents attacks such as session hijacking by signing

does not require expensive state synchronization in the

distributed systems. We implemented OTC as a plug-in
for the popular WordPress platform and as an extension
for Firefox and Firefox for mobile browsers. Our
extensive experimental analysis shows that OTC
introduces a latency of less than 6 ms when compared to
cookies --- a negligible overhead for most Web

novel structured P2P system, called BAKE, based on the
two structures that has the logarithmical diameter and
constant degree, even the number of peers is an
arbitrary value. By keeping a total ordering of peers
and employing a robust locality-preserved resource
placement strategy, resources that are similar in a
single or multidimensional attributes space are stored
on the same peer or neighboring peers. Through analysis
and simulation, we show that BAKE achieves the optimal
diameter and as good a connectivity as the Kautz
digraph does (almost achieves the Moore bound), and
supports the exact as well as the range queries
efficiently. Indeed, the structures of balanced Kautz
tree and Kautz ring we propose can also be applied to
other interconnection networks after minimal
modifications, for example, the de Bruijn digraph.",

abstraction which extends the existing content-centric
networking API. A delivery-centric abstraction allows
applications to generate content requests agnostic to
location or protocol, with the additional ability to
stipulate high-level requirements regarding such things
as performance, security, and resource consumption.
Fulfilling these requirements, however, is complex as
often the ability of a provider to satisfy requirements
will vary between different consumers and over time.
Therefore, we argue that it is vital to manage this
variance to ensure an application fulfills its needs.
To this end, we present the Juno middleware, which
implements delivery-centric support using a
reconfigurable software architecture to: (i) discover
multiple sources of an item of content; (ii) model each
source's ability to provide the content; then (iii)
adapt to interact with the source(s) that can best
fulfill the application's requirements. Juno therefore
utilizes existing providers in a backwards compatible
way, supporting immediate deployment. This article
evaluates Juno using Emulab to validate its ability to
adapt to its environment.",

the exercise price for this option, and then sells it

a setting where the competition is formed by local
bidders (which desire a single item), that using
options can increase the expected profit for both
sides. Furthermore, we derive the equations that
provide minimum and maximum bounds between which the
bids of the synergy buyer are expected to fall, in
order for both sides of the market to have an incentive
to use the options mechanism. Next, we perform an
experimental analysis of a market in which multiple
synergy buyers are active simultaneously. We show that,
despite the extra competition, some synergy buyers may
benefit, because sellers are forced to set their
exercise prices for options at levels which encourage

significant benefits for businesses, organizations,
governments, academia and societies in general. Today,
over millions of transactions take place on the
Internet. Although the widespread use of digital
environments has generally provided opportunities for
societies, a number of threats have limited their
adoption. The de-facto standard today is for
certification authorities to authenticate the identity
of service providers while trust on the provided
services is implied. This approach has certain
shortcomings, for example, single point of failure,
implied trust rather than explicit trust and others.
One approach for minimizing such threats is to
introduce an effective and resilient trust mechanism
that is capable of determining the trustworthiness of
service providers in providing their services.
Determining the trustworthiness of services reduces
invalid transactions in digital environments and
further encourages collaborations. Evaluating
trustworthiness of a service provider without any prior
historical transactions (i.e. the initial transaction)
pose a number of challenging issues. This article
presents TIDE --- a decentralized reputation trust
mechanism that determines the initial trustworthiness
of entities in digital environments. TIDE improves the
precision of trust computation by considering raters'
feedback, number of transactions, credibility,
incentive to encourage raters' participation, strategy
for updating raters' category, and safeguards against
dynamic personalities. Furthermore, TIDE classifies
raters into three categories and promotes the
flexibility and customization through its parameters.
Evaluation of TIDE against several attack vectors

individual rankings are aggregated into a global

set of alternatives both coincide with the set of
objects in the data collection. We first define what
constitutes a choice in the browsing domain and then
define a mechanism to aggregate individual choices into
a global ranking. The result is a framework for
computing customized recommendations by originally
combining intrinsic features of multimedia objects,
past behavior of individual users, and overall behavior
of the entire community of users. Recommendations are
ranked using an importance ranking algorithm that

he will accept to run microcomputations on behalf of

embedded in the social and interaction networks: their
network position is largely indistinguishable from that
of fair players. Moreover, we noticed that the number
of cheaters is not correlated with the geographical,
real-world population density, or with the local
popularity of the Steam Community. Also, we observed a
social penalty involved with being labeled as a
cheater: cheaters lose friends immediately after the
cheating label is publicly applied. Most importantly,
we observed that cheating behavior spreads through a
social mechanism: the number of cheater friends of a
fair player is correlated with the likelihood of her
becoming a cheater in the future. This allows us to
propose ideas for limiting cheating contagion.",

current commercial tools rely heavily on the system

as when a cloud burst is needed and which applications
must be moved to the cloud. In this article, we
describe Seagull, a system designed to facilitate cloud
bursting by determining which applications should be
transitioned into the cloud and automating the movement
process at the proper time. Seagull optimizes the
bursting of applications using an optimization
algorithm as well as a more efficient but approximate

of deploying applications into the cloud using an
intelligent precopying mechanism that proactively
replicates virtualized applications, lowering the
bursting time from hours to minutes. Our evaluation
shows over 100\% improvement compared to na{\"\i}ve

compared to ILP. However, the scalability of our greedy
algorithm is dramatically better as the number of VMs

cost added by precopying applications is offset by a
burst time reduction of nearly 95\%.",

content in social tagging systems provides a huge
source of information. Yet, performing effective search
in these systems is very challenging, especially when
we seek the most appropriate items that match a
potentially ambiguous query. Collaborative
filtering-based personalization is appealing in this
context, as it limits the search within a small network
of participants with similar preferences. Offline
personalization, which consists in maintaining, for
every user, a network of similar participants based on
their tagging behaviors, is effective for queries that
are close to the querying user's tagging profile but
performs poorly when the queries, reflecting emerging
interests, have little correlation with the querying
user's profile. We present P$^2$ TK$^2$, the first
protocol to personalize query processing in social
tagging systems online. P$^2$ TK$^2$ is completely
decentralized, and this design choice stems from the
observation that the evolving social tagging systems
naturally resemble P2P systems where users are both
producers and consumers. This design exploits the power
of the crowd and prevents any central authority from
controlling personal information. P$^2$ TK$^2$ is
gossip-based and probabilistic. It dynamically
associates each user with social acquaintances sharing
similar tagging behaviors. Appropriate users for
answering a query are discovered at query time with the
help of social acquaintances. This is achieved
according to the hybrid interest of the querying user,
taking into account both her tagging behavior and her
query. Results are iteratively refined and returned to
the querying user. We evaluate P$^2$ TK$^2$ on
CiteULike and Delicious traces involving up to 50,000
users. We highlight the advantages of online
personalization compared to offline personalization, as
well as its efficiency, scalability, and inherent
ability to cope with user departure and interest
evolution in P2P systems.",

quickly, a large number of candidate compositions that
would use different (most likely competing) services
may be used to answer the same query. User preferences
are a key factor that can be used to rank candidate

this article, we present a novel approach for computing

preferences. In our approach, we model user preferences
using fuzzy sets and incorporate them into the

rewriting algorithm to determine the relevant services
that may be used to answer the composition query. We
match the (fuzzy) constraints of the relevant services
to those of the query and determine their matching
degrees using a set of matching methods. We then
rank-order the candidate services based on a
fuzzification of Pareto dominance and compute the
top-$k$ data service compositions. In addition, we
introduce a new method for increasing the diversity of
returned top-$k$ compositions while maintaining as much
as possible the compositions with the highest scores.

interaction in space, time, and synchronization.
However, another dimension of semantic coupling also
exists and poses a challenge to the scalability of
event processing systems in highly semantically
heterogeneous and dynamic environments such as the
Internet of Things (IoT). Current state-of-the-art
approaches of content-based and concept-based event
systems require a significant agreement between event
producers and consumers on event schema or an external
conceptual model of event semantics. Thus, they do not
address the semantic coupling issue. This article
proposes an approach where participants only agree on a
distributional statistical model of semantics
represented in a corpus of text to derive semantic
similarity and relatedness. It also proposes an
approximate model for relaxing the semantic coupling
dimension via an approximation-enabled rule language
and an approximate event matcher. The model is
formalized as an ensemble of semantic and top-$k$
matchers along with a probability model for uncertainty
management. The model has been empirically validated on
large sets of events and subscriptions synthesized from
real-world smart city and energy management systems.
Experiments show that the proposed model achieves more
than 95\% F$_1$ Score of effectiveness and thousands of
events/sec of throughput for medium degrees of
approximation while not requiring users to have
complete prior knowledge of event semantics. In
semantically loosely-coupled environments, one
approximate subscription can compensate for hundreds of
exact subscriptions to cover all possibilities in
environments which require complete prior knowledge of
event semantics. Results indicate that approximate
semantic event processing could play a promising role
in the IoT middleware layer.",

we wish to identify unexplained sets of events. Most
related past work has been domain-dependent (e.g.,
video surveillance, cybersecurity) and has focused on
the valuable class of statistical anomalies in which
statistically unusual events are considered. In
contrast, suppose there is a set $A$ of known activity
models (both harmless and harmful) and a log $L$ of
time-stamped observations. We define a part $ L'
\subseteq L$ of the log to represent an unexplained
situation when none of the known activity models can
explain $ L'$ with a score exceeding a user-specified
threshold. We represent activities via probabilistic
penalty graphs (PPGs) and show how a set of PPGs can be
combined into one Super-PPG for which we define an
index structure. Given a compute cluster of $ (K + 1)$
nodes (one of which is a master node), we show how to
split a Super-PPG into $K$ subgraphs, each of which can
be independently processed by a compute node. We
provide algorithms for the individual compute nodes to
ensure seamless handoffs that maximally leverage
parallelism. PADUA is domain-independent and can be
applied to many domains (perhaps with some
specialization). We conducted detailed experiments with
PADUA on two real-world datasets-the ITEA CANDELA video
surveillance dataset and a network traffic dataset
appropriate for cybersecurity applications. PADUA
scales extremely well with the number of processors and
significantly outperforms past work both in accuracy

finances, etc. However, both known approaches to
dealing with the predominant out-of-order event arrival
at the distributed detectors have their shortcomings:
buffering approaches introduce latencies for event
ordering, and stream revision approaches may result in
system overloads due to unbounded retraction cascades.
This article presents an adaptive speculative
processing technique for out-of-order event streams
that enhances typical buffering approaches. In contrast
to other stream revision approaches developed so far,
our novel technique encapsulates the event detector,
uses the buffering technique to delay events but also
speculatively processes a portion of it, and adapts the
degree of speculation at runtime to fit the available
system resources so that detection latency becomes
minimal. Our technique outperforms known approaches on
both synthetical data and real sensor data from a
realtime locating system (RTLS) with several thousands
of out-of-order sensor events per second. Speculative
buffering exploits system resources and reduces latency
by 40\% on average.",

techniques for monitoring critical complex
infrastructures or dealing with disasters in the
physical world, little work exists on making event
correlation systems themselves tolerant to failure.
Existing systems either provide no guarantees on event
deliveries, do not support multicast and thus provide
no guarantees across individual processes, or then rely
on centralized components or strong assumptions on the
infrastructure. The FAIDECS system attempts to
reconcile strong guarantees with practical performance
in the presence of process crash failures. To that end,
the FAIDECS system uses an overlay network with
specific guarantees aligned with its proposed
correlation language and guarantees. However, the
language proposed lacks expressivity, and the system
itself supports only very specific rigid semantics,
incapable of supporting even fundamental features like
sliding windows. After providing a comprehensive
overview of the FAIDECS model and system, this article
bridges the gap between strong guarantees and more
established correlation languages and systems in
several steps. First, we propose alternative semantics
for several modules of the FAIDECS matching engine and
revisit guarantees. Second, we pinpoint which
guarantees are contradicted by which combinations of
semantic options. Third, we investigate four
correlation languages-StreamSQL, EQL, CEL, and
TESLA-showing which semantic options their respective
features correspond to in our model, and thus,
ultimately, which guarantees of FAIDECS are maintained
by which language features.",

applying this technique to compute provenance eagerly

provenance computation from query processing to reduce
runtime overhead and avoid unnecessary provenance
retrieval. Our proposals include computing a concise
superset of the provenance (to allow lazily replaying a
query and reconstruct its provenance) as well as lazy
retrieval (to avoid unnecessary reconstruction of
provenance). We develop stream-specific compression
methods to reduce the computational and storage
overhead of provenance generation and retrieval.
Ariadne, our provenance-aware extension of the Borealis
DSMS implements these techniques. Our experiments
confirm that Ariadne manages provenance with minor

abstract = "In designing new service plans, network service
providers need to understand how consumption of voice
or data service will change in response to pricing
signals. It is difficult to acquire such information
from customer usage data because voice minutes and data
bandwidth are typically sold in the form of large
quotas. We address this issue by studying how end-users
consume their quotas, both in a prepaid setting (where
users pay in advance and refill as needed) and a
postpaid setting (where users pay each month for a
fixed amount of quota). Our presentation has three main
parts. In the first we present data on quota usage for
prepaid voice/text services and show that users reduce
their voice usage when their balances become low.
Moreover, when balances are low there is a tendency to
shift from voice to SMS. In the second part, we provide
descriptive models of both prepaid and postpaid
services. The main feature of these models is that
there is a background level of potential demand and the
rate at which this potential demand is realized depends
on the amount of quota balance available. In the third
part, we propose utility maximizing models that can
account for this type of behavior. In the prepaid case
the main feature of the model is a discount function
that represents the perceived cost to the user of a
quota refill that will occur sometime in the future. In
the postpaid case, where the end-user is attempting to
get the maximum amount of utility from his monthly
quota, we present a dynamic programming formulation in
which utility functions are time varying and not known
to the user in advance.",

revenue for search engines. In such an auction, a set
of utility maximizing advertisers competes for a set of
ad slots. The assignment of advertisers to slots
depends on the bids they submit; these bids may be
different than the true valuations of the advertisers
for the slots. Variants of the celebrated VCG auction
mechanism guarantee that advertisers act truthfully
and, under some assumptions, lead to revenue or social
welfare maximization. Still, the sponsored search
industry mostly uses generalized second price (GSP)
auctions; these auctions are known to be nontruthful
and suboptimal in terms of social welfare and revenue.
In an attempt to explain this tradition, we study a
Bayesian setting wherein the valuations of advertisers
are drawn independently from a common regular
probability distribution. In this setting, it is well
known from the work of Myerson [1981] that the optimal
revenue is obtained by the VCG mechanism with a
particular reserve price that depends on the
probability distribution. We show that, by
appropriately setting the reserve price, the revenue
over any Bayes-Nash equilibrium of the game induced by
the GSP auction is at most a small constant factor away
from the optimal revenue, improving previous results of
Lucier et al. [2012]. Our analysis is based on the
Bayes-Nash equilibrium conditions and the improved
results are obtained by bounding the utility of each
player at equilibrium using infinitely many deviating
bids and also by developing novel prophet-like

a decision analysis perspective. Traditional QoS-aware
composition techniques usually consider the qualities
available at the time of the composition because
compositions are usually immediately consumed. This is
fundamentally different in the cloud environment where
the cloud service composition typically lasts for a
relatively long period of time. The two most important
drivers when composing cloud service are the long-term
nature of the composition and the economic motivation
for outsourcing tasks to the cloud. We propose an
economic model, which we represent as a Bayesian
network, to select and compose cloud services. We then
leverage influence diagrams to model the cloud service
composition. We further extend the traditional
influence diagram problem to a hybrid one and adopt an
extended Shenoy-Shafer architecture to solve such
hybrid influence diagrams that include deterministic
chance nodes. In addition, analytical and simulation
results are presented to show the performance of the
proposed composition approach.",

open problems of mashup development that users may face
when operating a model-driven mashup tool, namely the
lack of modeling expertise. Although commonly
considered simple applications, mashups can also be
complex software artifacts depending on the number and
types of Web resources (the components) they integrate.
Mashup tools have undoubtedly simplified mashup
development, yet the problem is still generally
nontrivial and requires intimate knowledge of the
components provided by the mashup tool, its underlying
mashup paradigm, and of how to apply such to the
integration of the components. This knowledge is
generally neither intuitive nor standardized across
different mashup tools and the consequent lack of
modeling expertise affects both skilled programmers and
end-user programmers alike. In this article, we show
how to effectively assist the users of mashup tools
with contextual, interactive recommendations of
composition knowledge in the form of reusable mashup
model patterns. We design and study three different
recommendation algorithms and describe a pattern
weaving approach for the one-click reuse of composition
knowledge. We report on the implementation of three
pattern recommender plugins for different mashup tools
and demonstrate via user studies that recommending and
weaving contextual mashup model patterns significantly
reduces development times in all three cases.",

However, while Socio-Technical Systems envisage an

terms of a set of normatively defined relationships
among two or more parties, subject to social control by
monitoring the observable behaviour. In our proposal,
social relationships are resources, available to
agents, who use them in their practical reasoning. Both
agents and social relationships are first-class

abstract = "The Web has recently been evolving into a system that
is in many ways centered on social interactions and is
now more and more becoming what is called the Social
Semantic Web. One of the many implications of such an
evolution is that the ranking of search results no
longer depends solely on the structure of the
interconnections among Web pages-instead, the social
components must also come into play. In this article,
we argue that such rankings can be based on ontological
background knowledge and on user preferences. Another
aspect that has become increasingly important in recent
times is that of uncertainty management, since
uncertainty can arise due to many uncontrollable
factors. To combine these two aspects, we propose
extensions of the Datalog+/-- family of ontology
languages that both allow for the management of
partially ordered preferences of groups of users as
well as uncertainty, which is represented via a
probabilistic model. We focus on answering k -rank
queries in this context, presenting different
strategies to compute group preferences as an
aggregation of the preferences of a collection of
single users. We also study merging operators that are
useful for combining the preferences of the users with
those induced by the values obtained from the
probabilistic model. We then provide algorithms to
answer k -rank queries for DAQs (disjunctions of atomic
queries) under these group preferences and uncertainty
that generalizes top- k queries based on the iterative
computation of classical skyline answers. We show that
such DAQ answering in Datalog+/-- can be done in
polynomial time in the data complexity, under certain
reasonable conditions, as long as query answering can
also be done in polynomial time (in the data
complexity) in the underlying classical ontology.
Finally, we present a prototype implementation of the
query answering system, as well as experimental results
(on the running time of our algorithms and the quality
of their results) obtained from real-world ontological
data and preference models, derived from information
gathered from real users, showing in particular that
our approach is feasible in practice.",

played an important role in recent cultural, social and
political events. Discovering latent topics from social
streams is therefore important for many downstream
applications, such as clustering, classification or
recommendation. However, traditional topic models that
rely on the bag-of-words assumption are insufficient to
uncover the rich semantics and temporal aspects of
topics in Twitter. In particular, microblog content is
often influenced by external information sources, such
as Web documents linked from Twitter posts, and often
focuses on specific entities, such as people or
organizations. These external sources provide useful
semantics to understand microblogs and we generally
refer to these semantics as auxiliary semantics. In
this article, we address the mentioned issues and
propose a unified framework for Multifaceted Topic
Modeling from Twitter streams. We first extract social
semantics from Twitter by modeling the social chatter
associated with hashtags. We further extract terms and
named entities from linked Web documents to serve as
auxiliary semantics during topic modeling. The
Multifaceted Topic Model (MfTM) is then proposed to
jointly model latent semantics among the social terms
from Twitter, auxiliary terms from the linked Web
documents and named entities. Moreover, we capture the
temporal characteristics of each topic. An efficient
online inference method for MfTM is developed, which
enables our model to be applied to large-scale and
streaming data. Our experimental evaluation shows the
effectiveness and efficiency of our model compared with
state-of-the-art baselines. We evaluate each aspect of
our framework and show its utility in the context of

a significant volume of heterogeneous social media data
is generated by users, in the form of texts, photos,
videos and collections of points of interest, etc. Such
social media data provides users with rich resources
for exploring content, such as looking for an
interesting video or a favorite point of interest.
However, the rapid growth of social media causes
difficulties for users to efficiently retrieve their
desired media items. Fortunately, users' digital
footprints on social networks such as comments
massively reflect individual's fine-grained preference
on media items, that is, preference on different
aspects of the media content, which can then be used
for personalized social media search. In this article,
we propose SESAME, a fine-grained preference-aware
social media search framework leveraging user digital
footprints on social networks. First, we collect users'
direct feedback on media content from their social
networks. Second, we extract users' sentiment about the
media content and the associated keywords from their
comments to characterize their fine-grained preference.
Third, we propose a parallel multituple based ranking
tensor factorization algorithm to perform the
personalized media item ranking by incorporating two
unique features, viz., integrating an enhanced
bootstrap sampling method by considering user
activeness and adopting stochastic gradient descent
parallelization techniques. We experimentally evaluate
the SESAME framework using two datasets collected from
Foursquare and YouTube, respectively. The results show
that SESAME can subtly capture user preference on

approaches by achieving better personalized ranking

among agents in a network. Agents who do not directly
trust each other can transact through exchange of IOUs
(obligations) along a chain of trust in the network.
Credit networks are robust to intrusion, can enable
transactions between strangers in exchange economies,
and have the liquidity to support a high rate of
transactions. We study the formation of such networks
when agents strategically decide how much credit to
extend each other. We find strong positive network
formation results for the simplest theoretical model.
When each agent trusts a fixed set of other agents and
transacts directly only with those it trusts, all
pure-strategy Nash equilibria are social optima.
However, when we allow transactions over longer paths,
the price of anarchy may be unbounded. On the positive
side, when agents have a shared belief about the
trustworthiness of each agent, simple greedy dynamics
quickly converge to a star-shaped network, which is a
social optimum. Similar star-like structures are found
in equilibria of heuristic strategies found via
simulation studies. In addition, we simulate
environments where agents may have varying information
about each others' trustworthiness based on their
distance in a social network. Empirical game analysis
of these scenarios suggests that star structures arise
only when defaults are relatively rare, and otherwise,
credit tends to be issued over short social distances
conforming to the locality of information. Overall, we
find that networks formed by self-interested agents
achieve a high fraction of available value, as long as
this potential value is large enough to enable any

focused on individual information cascades and the
social followers graph, in which the nodes for two
users are connected if one follows the other. We
instead study aggregate user behavior and the retweet

find that the lifetime tweet distribution is a type-II
discrete Weibull stemming from a power law hazard
function, that the tweet rate distribution, although
asymptotically power law, exhibits a lognormal cutoff
over finite sample intervals, and that the inter-tweet
interval distribution is a power law with exponential
cutoff. The retweet graph is small-world and
scale-free, like the social graph, but less
disassortative and has much stronger clustering. These
differences are consistent with it better capturing the
real-world social relationships of and trust between
users than the social graph. Beyond just understanding

We analyze the characteristics of resources and queries

quantitatively evaluate the fundamental design choices
for P2P-based multi-attribute RD. The datasets exhibit
several noteworthy features that affect the
performance. For example, compared to uniform queries,
real-world queries are relatively easier to resolve
using unstructured, superpeer, and
single-attribute-dominated query-based structured P2P
solutions, as queries mostly specify only a small
subset of the available attributes and large ranges of
attribute values. However, all the solutions are prone
to significant load balancing issues, as the resources

the main reason for participation is not to connect

recommendation features in these networks is
challenging, as traditional approaches leverage the
densely populated friendship relations found in typical

community types. We address this challenge by looking
beyond the articulated friendships of a community for
evidence of relationships. In particular, we look at
the interactions of members of an online community with
other members and resources. In this article, we
present a social behaviour model and apply it to two
types of recommendation systems, a people recommender
and a content recommender system. We evaluate our
systems using the interaction logs of an online diet

developed and deployed services. As with any
component-based system, the overall performance and
quality of the system is an aggregate function of its
component services. In this article, we present a novel
approach for managing bottom-up faults in service-based
systems. Bottom-up faults are a special case of
system-wide exceptions that are defined as abnormal
conditions or defects occurring in component services,
which if not detected and/or managed, may lead to
runtime failures. Examples of bottom-up faults include
network outage, server disruption, and changes to
service provisioning (e.g., new operation parameter
required) that may have an impact on the way component
services are consumed. We propose a soft-state
signaling-based approach to propagate these faults from
participants to composite services. Soft-state refers
to a class of protocols where the state of a service is
constantly refreshed by periodic messages, and
user/service takes up the responsibility of
communicating and maintaining its state.
Soft-state-based protocols have a number of advantages
including implicit error recovery and easier fault
management, resulting in high availability for systems.
Although soft-state has been widely used in various
Internet protocols, this work is the first (to the best
of our knowledge) to adopt soft-state for fault
management in composite services. The proposed approach
includes protocols for fault propagation (pure
soft-state and soft-state with explicit removal) and
fault reaction (rule-based). We also present experiment
results to assess the performance and applicability of
our approach.",

Four steps are incorporated in our BMIR algorithm.
First, when a number of retrieval requests (i.e., m
retrieval images and m radii) are simultaneously
submitted by users, then a cost-based dynamic retrieval
( CDRS ) scheduling procedure is invoked to efficiently
and effectively identify the correlation among the
retrieval spheres (requests) based on a cost model.
Next, an index-based image set reduction ( ISR ) is
performed at the execution-node level in parallel.
Then, a refinement processing of the candidate images
is conducted to get the answers. Finally, at the
transmission-node level, the corresponding image
fragment (IF) replicas are chosen based on an adaptive
multi-resolution ( AMR )-based IF replicas selection
scheme, and transmitted to the user-node level by a
priority-based IF replicas transmission ( PIFT )
scheme. The experimental results validate the
efficiency and effectiveness of the algorithm in
minimizing the response time and increasing the

better illustrate the trust--decision making process of
a user. We also discuss the extension of multihop
scenarios and multitarget scenarios. Experimental
results, with the real social network datasets of

abstract = "One of the main challenges in data matching and data
cleaning, in highly integrated systems, is duplicates
detection. While the literature abounds of approaches
detecting duplicates corresponding to the same
real-world entity, most of these approaches tend to
eliminate duplicates (wrong information) from the
sources, hence leading to what is called data repair.
In this article, we propose a framework that
automatically detects duplicates at query time and
effectively identifies the consistent version of the
data, while keeping inconsistent data in the sources.
Our framework uses matching dependencies (MDs) to
detect duplicates through the concept of data
reconciliation rules (DRR) and conditional function
dependencies (CFDs) to assess the quality of different
attribute values. We also build a duplicate
reconciliation index ( DRI ), based on clusters of
duplicates detected by a set of DRRs to speed up the
online data reconciliation process. Our experiments of
a real-world data collection show the efficiency and
effectiveness of our framework.",

that the fair prices returned by the model for

orders of magnitude higher than current bandwidth

capacity of cloud infrastructures, which offer

``if-then-else'' policies concerning resource usage and
size, resulting in a cumbersome specification process
that lacks expressiveness for enabling the control of
complex multilevel elasticity requirements. In this
article, first we propose SYBL, a novel language for
specifying elasticity requirements at multiple levels
of abstraction. Second, we design and develop the rSYBL
framework for controlling cloud services at multiple
levels of abstractions. To enforce user-specified
requirements, we develop a multilevel elasticity
control mechanism enhanced with conflict resolution.
rSYBL supports different cloud providers and is highly
extensible, allowing service providers or developers to
define their own connectors to the desired
infrastructures or tools. We validate it through
experiments with two distinct services, evaluating
rSYBL over two distinct cloud infrastructures, and
showing the importance of multilevel elasticity

Security and efficiency are recognized as two important

supports binary search and extend it to dynamic
settings (called DEPKS ) for inverted index--based
encrypted data. First, we describe our approaches of
constructing a searchable symmetric encryption (SSE)
scheme that supports binary search. Second, we present
a novel framework for EPKS and provide its formal
security definitions in terms of plaintext privacy and
predicate privacy by modifying Shen et al.'s security
notions [Shen et al. 2009]. Third, built on the
proposed framework, we design an EPKS scheme whose
complexity is logarithmic in the number of keywords.
The scheme is based on the groups of prime order and
enjoys strong notions of security, namely statistical
plaintext privacy and statistical predicate privacy.
Fourth, we extend the EPKS scheme to support dynamic
keyword and document updates. The extended scheme not
only maintains the properties of logarithmic-time
search efficiency and plaintext privacy and predicate
privacy but also has fewer rounds of communications for
updates compared to existing dynamic search encryption
schemes. We experimentally evaluate the proposed EPKS

more efficient in terms of both keyword search
complexity and communication complexity than existing

concerns in today's Internet of Things (IoT).
Conventional security techniques like signature-based
detection of malware and regular updates of a signature
database are not feasible solutions as they cannot
secure such systems effectively, having limited
resources. Programming languages permitting immediate
memory accesses through pointers often result in
applications having memory-related errors, which may
lead to unpredictable failures and security
vulnerabilities. Furthermore, energy efficient IoT
devices running on batteries cannot afford the
implementation of cryptography algorithms as such
techniques have significant impact on the system power
consumption. Therefore, in order to operate IoT in a
secure manner, the system must be able to detect and
prevent any kind of intrusions before the network
(i.e., sensor nodes and base station) is destabilised
by the attackers. In this article, we have presented an
intrusion detection and prevention mechanism by
implementing an intelligent security architecture using
random neural networks (RNNs). The application's source
code is also instrumented at compile time in order to
detect out-of-bound memory accesses. It is based on
creating tags, to be coupled with each memory
allocation and then placing additional tag checking
instructions for each access made to the memory. To
validate the feasibility of the proposed security
solution, it is implemented for an existing IoT system
and its functionality is practically demonstrated by
successfully detecting the presence of any suspicious

anomalous activity in the base station with an accuracy
of 97.23\%. Overall, the proposed security solution has

third of adults in the United States currently own

usage behavior of today's multidevice users. Using data
collected from a large university campus, we provide a

work is to study how the presence of multiple wireless
devices affects the network usage behavior of users.
Specifically, we characterize the usage pattern of the
different device types in terms of total and
intermittent usage, how the usage of different devices
overlap over time, and uncarried device usage
statistics. We also study user preferences of accessing
sensitive content and device-specific factors that
govern the choice of WiFi encryption type. The study
reveals several interesting findings about MDUs. We see
how the use of tablets and laptops are interchangeable
and how the overall multidevice usage is additive
instead of being shared among the devices. We also
observe how current DHCP configurations are oblivious
to multiple devices, which results in inefficient
utilization of available IP address space. All findings
about multidevice usage patterns have the potential to
be utilized by different entities, such as app

has often been studied in face-to-face contexts, we ask
whether individuals with empathic dispositions have
unique communication styles and/or elicit mimicry in

completed Davis's Interpersonal Reactivity Index and
provided access to Facebook activity. We confirm that
dispositional empathy is correlated to the use of
particular stylistic features. In addition, we identify
four empathy profiles and find correlations to writing
style. When a linguistic feature is used, this often
``triggers'' use by friends. However, the presence of
particular features, rather than participant

machine-human communications could be enhanced based on

scores are generally computed according to two
orthogonal perspectives: (a) helpfulness-based
reputation (HBR) scores and (b) centrality-based
reputation (CBR) scores. In HBR approaches, the most
reputable users are those who post the most helpful
reviews according to the opinion of the members of
their community. In CBR approaches, a
``who-trusts-whom'' network-known as a trust network
-is available and the most reputable users occupy the
most central position in the trust network, according
to some definition of centrality. The identification of
users featuring large HBR scores is one of the most
important research issue in the field of Social
Networks, and it is a critical success factor of many
Web-based platforms like e-marketplaces, product review
Web sites, and question-and-answering systems.
Unfortunately, user reviews/ratings are often sparse,
and this makes the calculation of HBR scores
inaccurate. In contrast, CBR scores are relatively easy
to calculate provided that the topology of the trust
network is known. In this article, we investigate if
CBR scores are effective to predict HBR ones, and, to
perform our study, we used real-life datasets extracted
from CIAO and Epinions (two product review Web sites)
and Wikipedia and applied five popular centrality
measures-Degree Centrality, Closeness Centrality,
Betweenness Centrality, PageRank and Eigenvector
Centrality-to calculate CBR scores. Our analysis
provides a positive answer to our research question:
CBR scores allow for predicting HBR ones and
Eigenvector Centrality was found to be the most
important predictor. Our findings prove that we can
leverage trust relationships to spot those users
producing the most helpful reviews for the whole

abstract = "In the offline world, getting to know new people is
heavily influenced by people's physical context, that
is, their current geolocation. People meet in classes,
bars, clubs, public transport, and so on. In contrast,
first-generation online social networks such as
Facebook or Google+ do not consider users' context and
thus mainly reflect real-world relationships (e.g.,
family, friends, colleagues). Location-based social
networks, or second-generation social networks, such as
Foursquare or Facebook Places, take the physical
location of users into account to find new friends.
However, with the increasing number and wide range of
popular platforms and services on the Web, people spend
a considerable time moving through the online worlds.
In this article, we introduce cyber-physical social
networks (CPSN) as the third generation of online
social networks. Beside their physical locations, CPSN
consider also users' virtual locations for connecting
to new friends. In a nutshell, we regard a web page as
a place where people can meet and interact. The
intuition is that a web page is a good indicator for a
user's current interest, likings, or information needs.
Moreover, we link virtual and physical locations,
allowing for users to socialize across the online and
offline world. Our main contributions focus on the two
fundamental tasks of creating meaningful virtual
locations as well as creating meaningful links between
virtual and physical locations, where ``meaningful''
depends on the application scenario. To this end, we
present OneSpace, our prototypical implementation of a
cyber-physical social network. OneSpace provides a live

real-world event detection using publicly accessible
data made available through Internet technology such as
Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube. In these highly
interactive systems, the general public are able to
post real-time reactions to ``real world'' events,
thereby acting as social sensors of terrestrial
activity. Automatically detecting and categorizing
events, particularly small-scale incidents, using
streamed data is a non-trivial task but would be of
high value to public safety organisations such as local
police, who need to respond accordingly. To address
this challenge, we present an end-to-end integrated
event detection framework that comprises five main
components: data collection, pre-processing,
classification, online clustering, and summarization.
The integration between classification and clustering
enables events to be detected, as well as related
smaller-scale ``disruptive events,'' smaller incidents
that threaten social safety and security or could
disrupt social order. We present an evaluation of the
effectiveness of detecting events using a variety of
features derived from Twitter posts, namely temporal,
spatial, and textual content. We evaluate our framework
on a large-scale, real-world dataset from Twitter.
Furthermore, we apply our event detection system to a
large corpus of tweets posted during the August 2011
riots in England. We use ground-truth data based on
intelligence gathered by the London Metropolitan Police
Service, which provides a record of actual terrestrial
events and incidents during the riots, and show that
our system can perform as well as terrestrial sources,
and even better in some cases.",

popular data representation models used in the
processing of large networks. Unfortunately, the vector
space model suffers from the so-called curse of
dimensionality, a phenomenon where data become
extremely sparse due to an exponential growth of the
data space volume caused by a large number of
dimensions. Thus, dimensionality reduction techniques
are necessary to make large networks represented in the
vector space model available for analysis and
processing. Most dimensionality reduction techniques
tend to focus on principal components present in the
data, effectively disregarding local relationships that
may exist between objects. This behavior is a
significant drawback of current dimensionality
reduction techniques, because these local relationships
are crucial for maintaining high accuracy in many
network analysis tasks, such as link prediction or
community detection. To rectify the aforementioned
drawback, we propose Progressive Random Indexing, a new
dimensionality reduction technique. Built upon
Reflective Random Indexing, our method significantly
reduces the dimensionality of the vector space model
while retaining all important local relationships
between objects. The key element of the Progressive
Random Indexing technique is the use of the gain value
at each reflection step, which determines how much
information about local relationships should be
included in the space of reduced dimensionality. Our
experiments indicate that when applied to large
real-world networks (Facebook social network, MovieLens
movie recommendations), Progressive Random Indexing

(WSN) are deployed in the environment for many
purposes: traffic control, pollution monitoring, and so
on. The willingness to open these legacy WSNs to the
users is emerging, by integrating them to the Internet
network as part of the future Internet of Things (IoT),
for example, in the context of smart cities and open
data policies. While legacy sensors cannot be directly
connected to the Internet in general, emerging
standards such as 6LoWPAN are aimed at solving this

connectivity as well as the mobility of smartphones to
use phones as opportunistic proxies, that is, mobile
proxies that opportunistically discover closeby static
sensors and act as intermediaries with the IoT, with
the additional benefit of bringing fresh information
about the environment to the smartphones' owners.
However, this requires us to monitor the smartphone's
mobility and further infer when to discover and
register the sensors to guarantee the efficiency and
reliability of opportunistic proxies. To that end, we
introduce and evaluate an approach based on mobility
analysis that uses a novel path prediction technique to
predict when and where the user is not moving, and
thereby serves to anticipate the registration of
sensors within communication range. We show that this
technique enables the deployment of low-cost

kinds, users start to care more about the Quality of
Service (QoS) that a service provider can offer besides
the functionalities of the services. As a result,
QoS-based service selection and recommendation have
received significant attention since the mid-2000s.
However, existing approaches primarily consider a small
number of standard QoS parameters, most of which relate
to the response time, fee, availability of services,
and so on. As online services start to diversify
significantly over different domains, these small set
of QoS parameters will not be able to capture the
different quality aspects that users truly care about
over different domains. Most existing approaches for
QoS data collection depend on the information from
service providers, which are sensitive to the
trustworthiness of the providers. Some service
monitoring mechanisms collect QoS data through actual
service invocations but may be affected by actual
hardware/software configurations. In either case,
domain-specific QoS data that capture what users truly
care about have not been successfully collected or
analyzed by existing works in service computing. To
address this demanding issue, we develop a statistical
learning approach to extract domain-specific QoS
features from user-provided service reviews. In
particular, we aim to classify user reviews based on
their sentiment orientations into either a positive or
negative category. Meanwhile, statistical feature
selection is performed to identify statistically
nontrivial terms from review text, which can serve as
candidate QoS features. We also develop a topic

users of the social networks as agents that represent
their users' privacy constraints as semantic rules.
Agents argue with each other on propositions that
enable their privacy rules by generating facts and
assumptions from their ontology. Moreover, agents can
seek help from others by requesting new information to

classifiers on one corpus, for example, Tweets, to
identify positive/negative polarity and classify
instances from another corpus, for example, sentences
from movie reviews. On the other hand, we address a
form of argumentation mining that we call
Relation-based Argumentation Mining, where we classify
pairs of sentences based on whether the first sentence
attacks or supports the second or whether it does
neither. Whenever we find that one sentence

abstract = "The data sparsity problem has attracted significant
attention in collaborative filtering-based recommender
systems. To alleviate data sparsity, several previous
efforts employed hybrid approaches that incorporate
auxiliary data sources into recommendation techniques,
like content, context, or social relationships.
However, due to privacy and security concerns, it is
generally difficult to collect such auxiliary
information. In this article, we focus on the pure
collaborative filtering methods without relying on any
auxiliary data source. We propose an improved
memory-based collaborative filtering approach enhanced
by a novel similarity reinforcement mechanism. It can
discover potential similarity relationships between
users or items by making better use of known but
limited user-item interactions, thus to extract
plentiful historical rating information from similar
neighbors to make more reliable and accurate rating
predictions. This approach integrates user similarity
reinforcement and item similarity reinforcement into a
comprehensive framework and lets them enhance each
other. Comprehensive experiments conducted on several
public datasets demonstrate that, in the face of data
sparsity, our approach achieves a significant
improvement in prediction accuracy when compared with
the state-of-the-art memory-based and model-based
collaborative filtering algorithms.",

developing effective obfuscation tools. We propose an

understanding and even actively preventing system
intrusion, but the excessive storage burden imposed by
automatic provenance collection threatens to undermine
its value in practice. This situation is made worse by
the fact that the majority of this metadata is unlikely
to be of interest to an administrator, instead
describing system noise or other background activities
that are not germane to the forensic investigation. To
date, storing data provenance in perpetuity was a
necessary concession in even the most advanced
provenance tracking systems in order to ensure the

analyses. In this work, we overcome this obstacle by
proposing a policy-based approach to provenance
filtering, leveraging the confinement properties
provided by Mandatory Access Control (MAC) systems in
order to identify and isolate subdomains of system
activity for which to collect provenance. We introduce
the notion of minimal completeness for provenance
graphs, and design and implement a system that provides
this property by exclusively collecting provenance for
the trusted computing base of a target application. In
evaluation, we discover that, while the efficacy of our
approach is domain dependent, storage costs can be
reduced by as much as 89\% in critical scenarios such
as provenance tracking in cloud computing data centers.

abstract = "Information produced by Internet applications is
inherently a result of processes that are executed
locally. Think of a web server that makes use of a CGI
script, or a content management system where a post was
first edited using a word processor. Given the impact
of these processes to the content published online, a
consumer of that information may want to understand
what those impacts were. For example, understanding
from where text was copied and pasted to make a post,
or if the CGI script was updated with the latest
security patches, may all influence the confidence on
the published content. Capturing and exposing this
information provenance is thus important to
ascertaining trust to online content. Furthermore,
providers of internet applications may wish to have
access to the same information for debugging or audit
purposes. For processes following a rigid structure
(such as databases or workflows), disclosed provenance
systems have been developed that efficiently and
accurately capture the provenance of the produced data.
However, accurately capturing provenance from
unstructured processes, for example, user-interactive
computing used to produce web content, remains a
problem to be tackled. In this article, we address the
problem of capturing and exposing provenance from
unstructured processes. Our approach, called
PROV$_{2R}$ (PROVenance Record and Replay) is composed
of two parts: (a) the decoupling of provenance analysis
from its capture; and (b) the capture of high-fidelity
provenance from unmodified programs. We use techniques
originating in the security and reverse engineering
communities, namely, record and replay and taint
tracking. Taint tracking fundamentally addresses the
data provenance problem but is impractical to apply at
runtime due to extremely high overhead. With a number
of case studies, we demonstrate that PROV$_{2R}$
enables the use of taint analysis for high-fidelity
provenance capture, while keeping the runtime overhead
at manageable levels. In addition, we show how captured
information can be represented using the W3C PROV
provenance model for exposure on the Web.",

an abstracted Internet technology or service, where the
instantaneous net value of the service perceived by
each (current or potential) user/customer incorporates
three key features: (i) user service affinity
heterogeneity, (ii) a network externality, and (iii) a
subscription cost. Internet technologies and services
with network externalities face a ``chicken-and-egg''
adoption problem in that the service requires an
established customer base to attract new customers. In
this article, we study cost subsidization as a means to
``reach the knee,'' at which point the externality
drives rapid service adoption, and thereby change the
equilibrium service fractional adoption level from an
initial near-zero level to a final near-one level (full
adoption). We present three simple subsidy models and
evaluate them under two natural performance metrics:
(i) the duration required for the subsidized service to
reach a given target adoption level and (ii) the
aggregate cost of the subsidy born by the service
provide. First, we present a ``two-target adoption
subsidy'' that subsidizes the cost to keep the fraction
of users with positive net utility at a (constant)
target level until the actual adoption target is
reached. Second, we study a special case of the above
where the target ensures all users have positive net
utility, corresponding to a ``quickest adoption''
subsidy (QAS). Third, we introduce an approximation of
QAS that only requires the service provider adjust the
subsidy level a prescribed number of times. Fourth, we
study equilibria and their stability under uniformly
and normally distributed user service affinities,
highlighting the unstable equilibrium in each case as
the natural target adoption level for the provider.
Finally, we provide a fictional case study to
illustrate the application of the results in a
(hopefully) realistic scenario, along with a brief
discussion of the limitations of the model and
analysis.",

of service has led cloud infrastructure customers to
disseminate their services, contents, and data over
multiple cloud data centers, often involving several
Cloud service providers (CSPs). The consequence of this
is that a large amount of data must be transmitted
across the public Cloud. However, little is known about
the bandwidth dynamics involved. To address this, we
have conducted a measurement campaign for bandwidth
between 18 data centers of four major CSPs. This
extensive campaign allowed us to characterize the
resulting time series of bandwidth as the addition of a
stationary component and some infrequent excursions
(typically downtimes). While the former provides a
description of the bandwidth users can expect in the
Cloud, the latter is closely related to the robustness
of the Cloud (i.e., the occurrence of downtimes is
correlated). Both components have been studied further
by applying factor analysis, specifically analysis of
variance, as a mechanism to formally compare data
centers' behaviors and extract generalities. The
results show that the stationary process is closely
related to the data center locations and CSPs involved
in transfers that, fortunately, make the Cloud more
predictable and allow the set of reported measurements
to be extrapolated. On the other hand, although
correlation in the Cloud is low, that is, only 10\% of
the measured pair of paths showed some correlation, we
found evidence that such correlation depends on the
particular relationships between pairs of data centers
with little connection to more general factors.
Positively, this implies that data centers either in
the same area or within the same CSP do not show
qualitatively more correlation than other data centers,
which eases the deployment of robust infrastructures.
On the downside, this metric is scarcely generalizable
and, consequently, calls for exhaustive monitoring.",

technology that can supplement existing cellular and
WiFi networks to provide desirable services for smart
and connected communities. Message routing is the most
compelling challenge in mobile opportunistic networks
due to the lack of contemporaneous end-to-end paths and
the resource constraints at mobile devices. To improve
the probability of successful message delivery, most
existing routing schemes use the past contact history
to predict future contacts for message forwarding, and
exploit message replication and redundancy for
multicopy routing. However, most existing
prediction-based routing schemes simply use the average
pairwise contact probability as the routing metric and
neglect the benefits of exploring fine-grained contact
information such as pairwise repeated contact patterns
to improve the accuracy of predicting future contacts.
Moreover, there is no efficient mechanism that can
adaptively control message replication in a
decentralized manner to achieve both high probability
of successful message delivery and low message
overhead. To address these problems, we present FGAR, a
routing protocol designed for mobile opportunistic
networks by leveraging fine-grained contact
characterization and adaptive message replication. In
FGAR, contact history is characterized in a
fine-grained manner with timing information using a
sliding window mechanism, and future contacts are
predicted based on the fine-grained contact
information, thereby improving the accuracy of contact
prediction. We further design an efficient message
replication scheme in which message replication is
controlled in a fully decentralized manner by taking
into account the expected message delivery probability,
the replication history, and the quality of the
encountered device. A replica is generated only when it
is necessary to fulfill the expected message delivery
probability. We evaluate our scheme through
trace-driven simulations, and the simulation results
show that FGAR outperforms existing schemes. In
comparison with PRoPHET, FGAR can achieve more than
20\% improvement on average on successful message
delivery, whereas the message overhead has been reduced
by a factor up to 15.",

abstract = "Mobility in urban environments is an undisputed key
factor that can affect citizens' well-being and quality
of life. This is particularly relevant for those people
with disabilities or with reduced mobility who have to
face the presence of barriers in urban areas. In this
scenario, the availability of information about such
architectural elements (together with facilities) can
greatly support citizens' mobility by enhancing their
independence and their abilities in conducting daily
outdoor activities. With this in mind, we have designed
and developed mobile Pervasive Accessibility Social
Sensing (mPASS), a system that provides users with
personalized paths, computed on the basis of their own
preferences and needs, with a customizable and
accessible interface. The system collects data from
crowdsourcing and crowdsensing to map urban and
architectural accessibility by providing reliable
information coming from different data sources with
different levels of trustworthiness. In this context,
reliability can be ensured by properly managing
crowdsourced and crowdsensed data, combined when
possible with authoritative datasets, provided by
disability rights organizations and local authorities.
To demonstrate this claim, in this article we present
our trustworthiness model and discuss results we have
obtained by simulations.",

infrastructures are motivating research in the area of
the Internet of Things (IoT) to develop new services
and improve citizens' quality of life. Sensors and
smart devices generate large amounts of measurement
data from sensing the environment, which is used to
enable services such as control of power consumption or
traffic density. To deal with such a large amount of
information and provide accurate measurements, service
providers can adopt information fusion, which given the
decentralized nature of urban deployments can be
performed by means of consensus algorithms. These
algorithms allow distributed agents to (iteratively)
compute linear functions on the exchanged data, and
take decisions based on the outcome, without the need
for the support of a central entity. However, the use
of consensus algorithms raises several security
concerns, especially when private or security critical
information is involved in the computation. In this
article we propose ODIN, a novel algorithm allowing
information fusion over encrypted data. ODIN is a
privacy-preserving extension of the popular consensus
gossip algorithm, which prevents distributed agents
from having direct access to the data while they
iteratively reach consensus; agents cannot access even
the final consensus value but can only retrieve partial
information (e.g., a binary decision). ODIN uses
efficient additive obfuscation and proxy re-encryption
during the update steps and garbled circuits to make
final decisions on the obfuscated consensus. We discuss
the security of our proposal and show its
practicability and efficiency on real-world
resource-constrained devices, developing a prototype

abstract = "The Internet of Things (IoT) is increasingly becoming
a worldwide network of interconnected things that are
uniquely addressable, via standard communication
protocols. The use of IoT for continuous monitoring of
public health is being rapidly adopted by various
countries while generating a massive volume of
heterogeneous, multisource, dynamic, and sparse
high-velocity data. Handling such an enormous amount of
high-speed medical data while integrating, collecting,
processing, analyzing, and extracting knowledge
constitutes a challenging task. On the other hand, most
of the existing IoT devices do not cooperate with one
another by using the same medium of communication. For
this reason, it is a challenging task to develop
healthcare applications for IoT that fulfill all user
needs through real-time monitoring of health
parameters. Therefore, to address such issues, this
article proposed a Hadoop-based intelligent care system
(HICS) that demonstrates IoT-based collaborative
contextual Big Data sharing among all of the devices in
a healthcare system. In particular, the proposed system
involves a network architecture with enhanced
processing features for data collection generated by
millions of connected devices. In the proposed system,
various sensors, such as wearable devices, are attached
to the human body and measure health parameters and
transmit them to a primary mobile device (PMD). The
collected data are then forwarded to intelligent
building (IB) using the Internet where the data are
thoroughly analyzed to identify abnormal and serious
health conditions. Intelligent building consists of (1)
a Big Data collection unit (used for data collection,
filtration, and load balancing); (2) a Hadoop
processing unit (HPU) (composed of Hadoop distributed
file system (HDFS) and MapReduce); and (3) an analysis
and decision unit. The HPU, analysis, and decision unit
are equipped with a medical expert system, which reads
the sensor data and performs actions in the case of an
emergency situation. To demonstrate the feasibility and
efficiency of the proposed system, we use publicly
available medical sensory datasets and real-time sensor
traffic while identifying the serious health conditions
of patients by using thresholds, statistical methods,
and machine-learning techniques. The results show that
the proposed system is very efficient and able to
process high-speed WBAN sensory data in real time.",

abstract = "Point-of-Interest (POI) recommendation is a new type
of recommendation task that comes along with the
prevalence of location-based social networks and
services in recent years. Compared with traditional
recommendation tasks, POI recommendation focuses more
on making personalized and context-aware
recommendations to improve user experience.
Traditionally, the most commonly used contextual
information includes geographical and social context
information. However, the increasing availability of
check-in data makes it possible to design more
effective location recommendation applications by
modeling and integrating comprehensive types of
contextual information, especially the temporal
information. In this article, we propose a
collaborative filtering method based on Tensor
Factorization, a generalization of the Matrix
Factorization approach, to model the multi-dimensional
contextual information. Tensor Factorization naturally
extends Matrix Factorization by increasing the
dimensionality of concerns, within which the
three-dimensional model is the one most popularly used.
Our method exploits a high-order tensor to fuse
heterogeneous contextual information about users'
check-ins instead of the traditional two-dimensional
user-location matrix. The factorization of this tensor
leads to a more compact model of the data that is
naturally suitable for integrating contextual
information to make POI recommendations. Based on the
model, we further improve the recommendation accuracy
by utilizing the internal relations within users and
locations to regularize the latent factors.
Experimental results on a large real-world dataset
demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach.",

architectures have shown promise in reducing the

overlay maintenance overhead. To handle these problems,
in this work, we novelly leverage the existing social
network in YouTube, where a user subscribes to another
user's channel to track all his/her uploaded videos.
The subscribers of a channel tend to watch the
channel's videos and common-interest nodes tend to
watch the same videos. Also, the popularity of videos
in one channel varies greatly. We study real trace data
to confirm these properties. Based on these properties,
we propose SocialTube, which builds the subscribers of
one channel into a P2P overlay and also clusters
common-interest nodes in a higher level. It also
incorporates a prefetching algorithm that prefetches
higher-popularity videos. To enhance the system
performance, we further propose the demand/supply-based

featuring environments that can execute highly dynamic
Internetware applications with huge numbers of
interacting tasks. This has led to a substantial
challenge-the straggler problem, whereby a small subset
of slow tasks significantly impede parallel job
completion. This problem results in longer service
responses, degraded system performance, and late timing
failures that can easily threaten Quality of Service
(QoS) compliance. Speculative execution (or
speculation) is the prominent method deployed in Clouds
to tolerate stragglers by creating task replicas at
runtime. The method detects stragglers by specifying a
predefined threshold to calculate the difference
between individual tasks and the average task
progression within a job. However, such a static
threshold debilitates speculation effectiveness as it
fails to capture the intrinsic diversity of timing
constraints in Internetware applications, as well as
dynamic environmental factors, such as resource
utilization. By considering such characteristics,
different levels of strictness for replica creation can
be imposed to adaptively achieve specified levels of
QoS for different applications. In this article, we
present an algorithm to improve the execution
efficiency of Internetware applications by dynamically
calculating the straggler threshold, considering key
parameters including job QoS timing constraints, task
execution progress, and optimal system resource
utilization. We implement this dynamic straggler
threshold into the YARN architecture to evaluate it's
effectiveness against existing state-of-the-art
solutions. Results demonstrate that the proposed
approach is capable of reducing parallel job response

well as a higher speculation success rate, achieving up

Application (App) cycle from development to delivery.
As a critical part to promote the successful
implementation of DevOps, testing can significantly
improve team productivity and reliably deliver user
experience. However, it is difficult to use traditional
testing to cover diverse mobile phones, network
environments, operating systems, and so on. Hence, many
large companies crowdsource their App testing tasks to
workers from open platforms. In crowdsourced testing,
test reports submitted by workers may be highly
redundant, and their quality may vary sharply.
Meanwhile, multi-bug test reports may be submitted, and
their root causes are hard to diagnose. Hence, it is a
time-consuming and tedious task for developers to
manually inspect these test reports. To help developers
address the above challenges, we issue the new problem
of Fuzzy Clustering Test Reports (FULTER). Aiming to
resolve FULTER, a series of barriers need to be
overcome. In this study, we propose a new framework
named Test Report Fuzzy Clustering Framework (TERFUR)
by aggregating redundant and multi-bug test reports
into clusters to reduce the number of inspected test
reports. First, we construct a filter to remove invalid
test reports to break through the invalid barrier.
Then, a preprocessor is built to enhance the
descriptions of short test reports to break through the
uneven barrier. Last, a two-phase merging algorithm is

capabilities of others to undertake particular tasks
that require intelligence and labor. Crowdsourcing such
capabilities is one way to achieve this. But providing
a service that leverages crowd intelligence and labor
is a challenge, since various factors need to be
considered to enable reliable service provisioning. For
example, the selection of an optimal set of workers
from those who bid to perform a task needs to be made
based on their reliability, expected reward, and
distance to the target locations. Moreover, for an
application involving multiple services, the overall
cost and time constraints must be optimally allocated
to each involved service. In this article, we develop a
framework, named CrowdService, that supplies crowd
intelligence and labor as publicly accessible crowd
services via mobile crowdsourcing. The article extends
our earlier work by providing an approach for
constraints synthesis and worker selection. It employs
a genetic algorithm to dynamically synthesize and
update near-optimal cost and time constraints for each
crowd service involved in a composite service and
selects a near-optimal set of workers for each crowd
service to be executed. We implement the proposed

hardware and physical systems with software and
network, which are together creating complex and
correlated interactions. CPS applications often
experience uncertainty in interacting with environment
through unreliable sensors. They can be faulty and
exhibit runtime errors if developers have not
considered environmental interaction uncertainty
adequately. Existing work in verifying CPS applications
ignores interaction uncertainty and thus may overlook
uncertainty-related faults. To improve verification
accuracy, in this article we propose a novel approach
to verifying CPS applications with explicit modeling of
uncertainty arisen in the interaction between them and
the environment. Our approach builds an Interactive
State Machine network for a CPS application and models
interaction uncertainty by error ranges and
distributions. Then it encodes both the application and
uncertainty models to Satisfiability Modulo Theories
(SMT) formula to leverage SMT solvers searching for
counterexamples that represent application failures.
The precision of uncertainty model can affect the
verification results. However, it may be difficult to
model interaction uncertainty precisely enough at the
beginning, because of the uncontrollable noise of
sensors and insufficient data sample size. To further
improve the accuracy of the verification results, we
propose an approach to identifying and calibrating
imprecise uncertainty models. We exploit the
inconsistency between the counterexamples' estimate and
actual occurrence probabilities to identify possible
imprecision in uncertainty models, and the calibration
of imprecise models is to minimize the inconsistency,
which is reduced to a Search-Based Software Engineering
problem. We experimentally evaluated our verification

applications, and the experimental results confirmed
their effectiveness and efficiency.",

Deciding where to deploy which component is a difficult

recommendations. Choosing inefficient topologies
allocates the wrong amount of resources, leads to
unnecessary operation costs, or results in poor
performance. Testing different topologies to find good
solutions takes a lot of time and might delay
productive operations. Therefore, this work introduces
a software-based deployment topology optimization
approach for distributed applications. We use an
enhanced performance model generator that extracts
models from operational monitoring data of running
applications. The extracted model is used to simulate
performance metrics (e.g., resource utilization,
response times, throughput) and runtime costs of
distributed applications. Subsequently, we introduce a
deployment topology optimizer, which selects an
optimized topology for a specified workload and
considers on-premise, cloud, and hybrid topologies. The
following three optimization goals are presented in
this work: (i) minimum response time for an optimized
user experience, (ii) approximate resource utilization
around certain peaks, and (iii) minimum cost for
running the application. To evaluate the approach, we
use the SPECjEnterpriseNEXT industry benchmark as
distributed application in an on-premise and in a
cloud/on-premise hybrid environment. The evaluation
demonstrates the accuracy of the simulation compared to
the actual deployment by deploying an optimized

approach to enrich user experiences at the mobile

attention in research. The computation offloading
decision making and tasks scheduling among
heterogeneous shared resources in mobile clouds are
becoming challenging problems in terms of providing
global optimal task response time and energy
efficiency. In this article, we address these two
problems together in a heterogeneous mobile cloud
environment as an optimization problem. Different from
conventional distributed computing system scheduling
problems, our joint offloading and scheduling
optimization problem considers unique contexts of
mobile clouds such as wireless network connections and
mobile device mobility, which makes the problem more
complex. We propose a context-aware mixed integer
programming model to provide off-line optimal solutions
for making the offloading decisions and scheduling the
offloaded tasks among the shared computing resources in
heterogeneous mobile clouds. The objective is to
minimize the global task completion time (i.e.,
makespan). To solve the problem in real time, we
further propose a deterministic online algorithm-the
Online Code Offloading and Scheduling (OCOS)
algorithm-based on the rent/buy problem and prove the
algorithm is 2-competitive. Performance evaluation
results show that the OCOS algorithm can generate
schedules that have around two times shorter makespan

Such an approach, though suitable for publishing

graph structure and aggregate query results, and (3)

However, a content that is shared by one user can very
well violate the privacy of other users. To remedy
this, ideally, all users who are related to a content

Recent approaches advocate the use of agreement

discuss the privacy configurations of a post. This
allows related individuals to express concerns so that
various privacy violations are avoided up front.
Existing techniques try to establish an agreement on a
single post. However, most of the time, agreement
should be established over multiple posts such that the
user can tolerate slight breaches of privacy in return
of a right to share posts themselves in future
interactions. As a result, users can help each other
preserve their privacy, viewing this as their social

societies, including a language to describe rules and
protocols, and an abductive proof procedure for
compliance checking. However, how to identify the
entity responsible for a violation is not always clear.
In this work, a definition of accountability for
artificial societies is formalized in S CIFF. Two tools
are provided for the designer of interaction protocols:
a guideline, in terms of syntactic features that ensure
accountability of the protocol, and an algorithm
(implemented in a software tool) to investigate if, for
a given protocol, nonaccountability issues could
arise.",

abstract = "In a networked system, the risk of security
compromises depends not only on each node's security
but also on the topological structure formed by the
connected individuals, businesses, and computer
systems. Research in network security has been
exploring this phenomenon for a long time, with a
variety of modeling frameworks predicting how many
nodes we should expect to lose, on average, for a given
network topology, after certain types of incidents.
Meanwhile, the pricing of insurance contracts for risks
related to information technology (better known as
cyber-insurance) requires determining additional
information, for example, the maximum number of nodes
we should expect to lose within a 99.5\% confidence
interval. Previous modeling research in network
security has not addressed these types of questions,
while research on cyber-insurance pricing for networked
systems has not taken into account the network's
topology. Our goal is to bridge that gap, by providing
a mathematical basis for the assessment of systematic
risk in networked systems. We define a loss-number
distribution to be a probability distribution on the
total number of compromised nodes within a network
following the occurrence of a given incident, and we
provide a number of modeling results that aim to be
useful for cyber-insurers in this context. We prove
NP-hardness for the general case of computing the
loss-number distribution for an arbitrary network
topology but obtain simplified computable formulas for
the special cases of star topologies, ER-random
topologies, and uniform topologies. We also provide a
simulation algorithm that approximates the loss-number
distribution for an arbitrary network topology and that
appears to converge efficiently for many common classes
of topologies. Scale-free network topologies have a
degree distribution that follows a power law and are
commonly found in real-world networks. We provide an
example of a scale-free network in which a
cyber-insurance pricing mechanism that relies naively
on incidence reporting data will fail to accurately
predict the true risk level of the entire system. We
offer an alternative mechanism that yields an accurate
forecast by taking into account the network topology,
thus highlighting the lack/importance of topological
data in security incident reporting. Our results
constitute important steps toward the understanding of
systematic risk and help to contribute to the emergence
of a viable cyber-insurance market.",

regularly uses technical indicators of abuse to
identify culprits and to tailor mitigation strategies.
As a major obstacle, current inferences from abuse data
that aim to characterize providers with poor security
practices often use a naive normalization of abuse
(abuse counts divided by network size) and do not take
into account other inherent or structural properties of
providers. Even the size estimates are subject to
measurement errors relating to attribution,
aggregation, and various sources of heterogeneity. More
precise indicators are costly to measure at Internet
scale. We address these issues for the case of hosting
providers with a statistical model of the abuse data
generation process, using phishing sites in hosting
networks as a case study. We decompose error sources
and then estimate key parameters of the model,
controlling for heterogeneity in size and business
model. We find that 84\% of the variation in abuse
counts across 45,358 hosting providers can be explained
with structural factors alone. Informed by the fitted
model, we systematically select and enrich a subset of
105 homogeneous ``statistical twins'' with additional
explanatory variables, unreasonable to collect for all
hosting providers. We find that abuse is positively
associated with the popularity of websites hosted and
with the prevalence of popular content management
systems. Moreover, hosting providers who charge higher
prices (after controlling for level differences between
countries) witness less abuse. These structural factors
together explain a further 77\% of the remaining
variation. This calls into question premature
inferences from raw abuse indicators about the security
efforts of actors, and suggests the adoption of similar
analysis frameworks in all domains where network
measurement aims at informing technology policy.",

abstract = "The intrusiveness of Web tracking and the increasing
invasiveness of digital advertising have raised serious
concerns regarding user privacy and Web usability,
leading a substantial chunk of the populace to adopt
ad-blocking technologies in recent years. The problem
with these technologies, however, is that they are
extremely limited and radical in their approach, and
they completely disregard the underlying economic model
of the Web, in which users get content free in return
for allowing advertisers to show them ads. Nowadays,
with around 200 million people regularly using such
tools, said economic model is in danger. In this
article, we investigate an Internet technology that
targets users who are not, in general, against
advertising, accept the trade-off that comes with the
``free'' content, but-for privacy concerns-they wish to
exert fine-grained control over tracking. Our working
assumption is that some categories of web pages (e.g.,
related to health or religion) are more
privacy-sensitive to users than others (e.g., about
education or science). Capitalizing on this, we propose
a technology that allows users to specify the
categories of web pages that are privacy-sensitive to
them and block the trackers present on such web pages
only. As tracking is prevented by blocking network
connections of third-party domains, we avoid not only
tracking but also third-party ads. Since users continue
receiving ads on those web pages that belong to
non-sensitive categories, our approach may provide a
better point of operation within the trade-off between
user privacy and the Web economy. To test the
appropriateness and feasibility of our solution, we
implemented it as a Web-browser plug-in, which is
currently available for Google Chrome and Mozilla
Firefox. Experimental results from the collected data
of 746 users during one year show that only 16.25\% of
ads are blocked by our tool, which seems to indicate
that the economic impact of the ad-blocking exerted by
privacy-sensitive users could be significantly
reduced.",

PrivacyCheck, utilizes the data mining models to
summarize any HTML page that contains a privacy policy.

explain the navigability of large-scale real-world
social networks. However, the underlying mechanism that
drives real networks to be navigable is not yet well
understood. In this article, we present a game
theoretic model for the formation of navigable
small-world networks. We model the network formation as
a game called the Distance-Reciprocity Balanced (DRB)
game in which people seek for both high reciprocity and
long-distance relationships. We show that the game has
only two Nash equilibria: One is the navigable
small-world network, and the other is the random
network in which each node connects with each other
node with equal probability, and any other network
state can reach the navigable small world via a
sequence of best-response moves of nodes. We further
show that the navigable small-world equilibrium is very
stable-(a) no collusion of any size would benefit from
deviating from it; and (b) after an arbitrary
deviations of a large random set of nodes, the network
would return to the navigable small world as soon as
every node takes one best-response step. In contrast,
for the random network, a small group collusion or
random perturbations is guaranteed to bring the network
out of the random-network equilibrium and move to the
navigable network as soon as every node takes one
best-response step. Moreover, we show that navigable
small-world equilibrium has much better social welfare
than the random network, and we provide the
price-of-anarchy and price-of-stability results of the
game. Our empirical evaluation further demonstrates
that the system always converges to the navigable
network even when limited or no information about other
players' strategies is available, and the DRB game
simulated on real-world networks leads to navigability
characteristic that is very close to that of the real
networks, even though the real-world networks have
non-uniform population distributions different from
Kleinberg's small-world model. Our theoretical and

(IoT) has created a demand for ubiquitous connectivity
of IoT devices into the Internet. While end-to-end
connectivity for IoT requires in practice IPv6, a vast
majority of nodes in Internet are only IPv4-capable. To
address this issue, the use of Network Address
Translation (NAT) at the IoT network boundary becomes
necessary. However, the constrained nature of the IoT
devices hinders the integration of traditional NAT
traversal architectures through IoT networks. In this
article, we introduce a novel transition mechanism that
transparently enables IoT devices behind NATs to
connect across different network-layer infrastructures.
Our mechanism adopts the IoT standards to provide a
global connectivity solution in a transparent, secure,
and elegant way. Additionally, we revisit the NAT
solutions for IoT and describe and evaluate our current

abstract = "A key success of a Web service is to appropriately
design its interface to make it easy to consume and
understand. In the context of service-oriented
computing (SOC), the service's interface is the main
source of interaction with the consumers to reuse the
service functionality in real-world applications. The
SOC paradigm provides a collection of principles and
guidelines to properly design services to provide best
practice of third-party reuse. However, recent studies
showed that service designers tend to pay little care
to the design of their service interfaces, which often
lead to several side effects known as antipatterns. One
of the most common Web service interface antipatterns
is to expose a large number of semantically unrelated
operations, implementing different abstractions, in one
single interface. Such bad design practices may have a
significant impact on the service reusability,
understandability, as well as the development and
run-time characteristics. To address this problem, in
this article, we propose a hybrid approach to improve
the design quality of Web service interfaces and fix
antipatterns as a combination of both deterministic and
heuristic-based approaches. The first step consists of
a deterministic approach using a graph
partitioning-based technique to split the operations of
a large service interface into more cohesive
interfaces, each one representing a distinct
abstraction. Then, the produced interfaces will be
checked using a heuristic-based approach based on the
non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) to
correct potential antipatterns while reducing the
interface design deviation to avoid taking the service
away from its original design. To evaluate our
approach, we conduct an empirical study on a benchmark
of 26 real-world Web services provided by Amazon and
Yahoo. Our experiments consist of a quantitative
evaluation based on design quality metrics, as well as
a qualitative evaluation with developers to assess its
usefulness in practice. The results show that our
approach significantly outperforms existing approaches
and provides more meaningful results from a developer's
perspective.",

with the end-user application's context model. CARIoT
features design choices and software services to
realize this service provisioning model and the
supporting data structures for hierarchical IoT data
access. Using this approach, end-user applications can
access IoT services and subscribe to their real-time
and historical data in an efficient manner at different
contextual levels, e.g., from a municipal district to a
street in smart city use cases. We leverage a popular
cloud-based data storage platform, called Firebase, to
implement the CARIoT framework and evaluate its
efficiency. The evaluation results show that CARIoT's
hierarchical structure imposes no additional overhead

Based on the autonomic computing, this pattern
identifies a combination of management processes able
to continuously detect and manage the context changes.
These processes are coordinated based on cognitive
mechanisms that allow the system perceiving and
understanding the meaning of the received data to make
business decisions, as well as dynamically discovering
new processes that meet the requirements evolution at

abstract = "Research in the Internet of Things (IoT) conceives a
world where everyday objects are connected to the
Internet and exchange, store, process, and collect data
from the surrounding environment. IoT devices are
becoming essential for supporting the delivery of data
to enable electronic services, but they are not
sufficient in most cases to host application services
directly due to their intrinsic resource constraints.
Fog Computing (FC) can be a suitable paradigm to
overcome these limitations, as it can coexist and
cooperate with centralized Cloud systems and extends
the latter toward the network edge. In this way, it is
possible to distribute resources and services of
computing, storage, and networking along the
Cloud-to-Things continuum. As such, FC brings all the
benefits of Cloud Computing (CC) closer to end (user)
devices. This article presents a survey on the
employment of FC to support IoT devices and services.
The principles and literature characterizing FC are
described, highlighting six IoT application domains
that may benefit from the use of this paradigm. The
extension of Cloud systems towards the network edge
also creates new challenges and can have an impact on
existing approaches employed in Cloud-based
deployments. Research directions being adopted by the
community are highlighted, with an indication of which
of these are likely to have the greatest impact. An
overview of existing FC software and hardware platforms
for the IoT is also provided, along with the
standardisation efforts in this area initiated by the
OpenFog Consortium (OFC).",

abstract = "Mobile crowd-sensing (MCS) enables development of
context-aware applications by mining relevant
information from a large set of devices selected in an
ad hoc manner. For example, MCS has been used for
real-time monitoring such as Vehicle ad hoc
Networks-based traffic updates as well as offline data
mining and tagging for future use in applications with
location-based services. However, MCS could be
potentially used for much more demanding applications
such as real-time perpetrator tracking by online mining
of images from nearby mobile users. A recent example is
tracking the miscreant responsible for the Boston
bombing. We present a new design approach for tracking
using MCS for such complex processing in real time.
Since MCS applications assume an unreliable underlying
computational platform, most typically sample size for
recruited devices is guided by concerns such as fault
tolerance and reliability of information. As the
real-time requirements get stricter coupled with
increasing complexity of data-mining approaches, the
communication and computation overheads can impose a
very tight constraint on the sample size of devices
needed for realizing real-time operation. This results
in trade-off in acquiring context-relevant data and
resource usage incurred while the real-time operation
requirements get updated dynamically. Such effects have
not been properly studied and optimized to enable
real-time MCS applications such as perpetrator
tracking. In this article, we propose ContextAiDe
architecture, a combination of API, middleware, and
optimization engine. The key innovation in ContextAiDe
is context-optimized recruitment for execution of
computation- and communication-heavy MCS applications
in edge environment. ContextAiDe uses a notion of two
types of contexts, exact (hard constraints), which have
to be satisfied, and preferred (soft constraints),
which may be satisfied to a certain degree. By
adjusting the preferred contexts, ContextAiDe can
optimize the operational overheads to enable real-time
operation. ContextAiDe provides an API to specify
contexts requirements and the code of MCS app, offload
execution environment, a middleware that enables
context-optimized and a fault-tolerant distributed
execution. ContextAiDe evaluation using a real-time
perpetrator tracking application shows reduced energy
consumption of 37.8\%, decrease in data transfer of
24.8\%, and 43\% less time compared to existing
strategy. In spite of a small increase in the minimum
distance from the perpetrator, iterations of
optimization tracks the perpetrator successfully.
Pro-actively learning the context and using stochastic
optimization strategy minimizes the performance
degradation caused due to uncertainty (\<20\%) in
usage-dependent contexts.",

provide cloud computing capabilities at the edge of the
network to support low latency mobile services. The
fundamental concept relies on bringing cloud
computation closer to users by deploying cloudlets or
edge servers, which are small clusters of servers that
are mainly located on existing wireless Access Points
(APs), set-top boxes, or Base Stations (BSs). In this
article, we focus on computation offloading over a
heterogeneous cloudlet environment. We consider several
users with different energy-and latency-constrained
tasks that can be offloaded over cloudlets with
differentiated system and network resources capacities.
We investigate offloading policies that decide which
tasks should be offloaded and select the assigned
cloudlet, accordingly with network and system
resources. The objective is to minimize an offloading
cost function, which we defined as a combination of
tasks' execution time and mobiles' energy consumption.
We formulate this problem as a Mixed-Binary
Programming. Since the centralized optimal solution is
NP-hard, we propose a distributed linear
relaxation-based heuristic approach that relies on the
Lagrangian decomposition method. To solve the
subproblems, we also propose a greedy heuristic
algorithm that computes the best cloudlet selection and
bandwidth allocation following tasks' offloading costs.
Numerical results show that our offloading policy

standard solution for this kind of service is to
combine the Cloud computing infrastructure with IoT
software, services, and protocols also known as CoT

latency-sensitive applications has been shown to be
unfeasible due to the inherent latency of cloud
computing services. One proposal to solve this problem
is the use of the computational resources available at

Fog computing solves the problem of latency but adds
complexity to the use of these resources due to the

accentuated form of fog computing is Mist computing,
where the use of the computational resources is limited
to the close neighborhood of the client device. The
decision of what computing infrastructure (Fog, Mist,

computational resources is not always simple,
especially in cases where latency requirements should
be met by CoT. This work proposes an algorithm for
selecting the best physical infrastructure to use the

trend promotes pushing computation from the remote
Cloud as close to data sources as possible, resulting
in the emergence of the Fog and Edge computing
paradigms. Together with Cloud computing, they
represent a stacked architecture, in which raw datasets
are first pre-processed locally at the Edge and then
vertically offloaded to the Fog and/or the Cloud.
However, as hardware is becoming increasingly powerful,
Edge devices are seen as candidates for offering data
processing capabilities, able to pool and share
computing resources to achieve better performance at a
lower network latency-a pattern that can be also
applied to Fog nodes. In these circumstances, it is
important to enable efficient, intelligent, and

proposes an OpenStack-based middleware platform through
which resource containers at the Edge, Fog, and Cloud

end users and applications, thereby facilitating and
orchestrating offloading processes. As demonstrated
through a proof of concept on an intelligent

enable faster data processing, as compared to

abstract = "Driven by the vision of edge computing and the success
of rich cognitive services based on artificial
intelligence, a new computing paradigm, edge cognitive
computing (ECC), is a promising approach that applies
cognitive computing at the edge of the network. ECC has
the potential to provide the cognition of users and
network environmental information, and further to
provide elastic cognitive computing services to achieve
a higher energy efficiency and a higher Quality of
Experience (QoE) compared to edge computing. This
article first introduces our architecture of the ECC
and then describes its design issues in detail.
Moreover, we propose an ECC-based dynamic service
migration mechanism to provide insight into how
cognitive computing is combined with edge computing. In
order to evaluate the proposed mechanism, a practical
platform for dynamic service migration is built up,
where the services are migrated based on the behavioral
cognition of a mobile user. The experimental results
show that the proposed ECC architecture has ultra-low
latency and a high user experience, while providing
better service to the user, saving computing resources,
and achieving a high energy efficiency.",

online service companies to offer ``bundling sales'' to
increase revenue. Bundling sale means that a company
groups a set of products/services and charges this
bundle at a fixed price, which is usually less than the
total price of individual items in the bundle. In this
work, our aim is to understand the underlying dynamics
of bundling, particularly what is the optimal bundling
sale strategy and under what situations it will be more
attractive than the separate sales. We focus on online
service markets that exhibit network effects. We
formulate mathematical models to capture the
interactions between buyers and sellers, analyze the
market equilibrium and its stability, and provide an
optimization framework to determine the optimal sale
strategy for a service provider. We analyze the impact
of various factors on the profitability of bundling,
including the network effects, operating costs, and
variance and correlation of customers' valuations
toward these services. We show that bundling is more
profitable when the variance of customers' valuations
and the operational cost of the services are small. In
addition, a positive network effect and a negative
correlation among customers' valuation on services
increase the profitability of bundling, whereas the
heterogeneity of services and the asymmetry of
operating costs reduce its advantage.",

abstract = "Scientific workflows enable scientists to undertake
analysis on large datasets and perform complex
scientific simulations. These workflows are often
mapped onto distributed and parallel computational
infrastructures to speed up their executions. Prior to
its execution, a workflow structure may suffer
transformations to accommodate the computing
infrastructures, normally involving task clustering and
partitioning. However, these transformations may cause
workflow imbalance because of the difference between
execution task times (runtime imbalance) or because of
unconsidered data dependencies that lead to data
locality issues (data imbalance). In this article, to
mitigate these imbalances, we enhance the workflow
lifecycle process in use by introducing a workflow
imbalance phase that quantifies workflow imbalance
after the transformations. Our technique is based on
structural analysis of Petri nets, obtained by model
transformation of a data-intensive workflow, and Linear
Programming techniques. Our analysis can be used to
assist workflow practitioners in finding more efficient
ways of transforming and scheduling their workflows.
Moreover, based on our analysis, we also propose a
technique to mitigate workflow imbalance by data
throttling. Our approach is based on autonomic
computing principles that determine how data
transmission must be throttled throughout workflow
jobs. Our autonomic data-throttling approach mainly
monitors the execution of the workflow and recompute
data-throttling values when certain watchpoints are
reached and time derivation is observed. We validate
our approach by a formal proof and by simulations along
with the Montage workflow. Our findings show that a
dynamic data-throttling approach is feasible, does not
introduce a significant overhead, and minimizes the
usage of input buffers and network bandwidth.",

However, practitioners of web applications have often
encountered the long-tail response time problem in
cloud data centers as the system utilization reaches
moderate levels (e.g., 50\%). Our fine-grained
measurements of an open source n-tier benchmark
application (RUBBoS) show such long response times are
often caused by Cross-tier Queue Overflow (CTQO). Our
experiments reveal the CTQO is primarily created by the
synchronous nature of RPC-style call/response
inter-tier communications, which create strong
inter-tier dependencies due to the request processing
chain of classic n-tier applications composed of
synchronous RPC/thread-based servers. We remove
gradually the dependencies in n-tier applications by
replacing the classic synchronous servers (e.g.,
Apache, Tomcat, and MySQL) with their corresponding
event-driven asynchronous version (e.g., Nginx,
XTomcat, and XMySQL) one-by-one. Our measurements with
two application scenarios (virtual machine co-location
and background monitoring interference) show that
replacing a subset of asynchronous servers will shift
the CTQO, without significant improvements in long-tail
response time. Only when all the servers become
asynchronous the CTQO is resolved. In synchronous
n-tier applications, long-tail response times resulting
from CTQO arise at utilization as low as 43\%. On the
other hand, the completely asynchronous n-tier system
can disrupt CTQO and remove the long tail latency at
utilization as high as 83\%.",

Then, we design a novel correlative convolutional

learn effective representations of the multi-faceted
features. The model can discover salient information
while being robust to the variations and noises in
tweets and sources. To obtain a bird's-eye view of a

the fabric of our society, impacting almost every
aspect of it. Over the past few decades, an aggressive
market rivalry has led to the emergence of multiple
competing, ``closed'' OSNSs. As a result, users are
trapped in the walled gardens of their OSNS,
encountering restrictions about what they can do with
their personal data, the people they can interact with,
and the information they get access to. As an
alternative to the platform lock-in, ``open'' OSNSs
promote the adoption of open, standardized APIs.
However, users still massively adopt closed OSNSs to
benefit from the services' advanced functionalities
and/or follow their ``friends,'' although the users'
virtual social sphere is ultimately limited by the
OSNSs they join. Our work aims at overcoming such a
limitation by enabling users to meet and interact
beyond the boundary of their OSNSs, including reaching
out to ``friends'' of distinct closed OSNSs. We
specifically introduce Universal Social Network Bus
(USNB), which revisits the ``service bus'' paradigm
that enables interoperability across computing systems
to address the requirements of `` social
interoperability.'' USNB features synthetic profiles
and personae for interaction across the boundaries of
closed and open and profile- and non-profile-based
OSNSs through a reference social interaction service.
We ran a 1-day workshop with a panel of users who
experimented with the USNB prototype to assess the
potential benefits of social interoperability for
social network users. Results show the positive
evaluation of users for USNB, especially as an enabler
of applications for civic participation. This further
opens up new perspectives for future work, among which
includes enforcing security and privacy guarantees.",

experiences in assessing the trustworthiness of a
trustee. In a time where the agents are being
increasingly accepted as partners in collaborative
efforts and activities, it is critical to understand
all aspects of human trust development in agent
partners. For human-agent virtual ad hoc teams to be
effective, humans must be able to trust their agent
counterparts. To earn the humans' trust, agents need to
quickly develop an understanding of the expectation of
human team members and adapt accordingly. This study
empirically investigates the impact of past experience
on human trust in and reliance on agent teammates. To
do so, we developed a team coordination game, the Game
of Trust (GoT), in which two players repeatedly
cooperate to complete team tasks without prior
assignment of subtasks. The effects of past experience
on human trust are evaluated by performing an extensive
set of controlled experiments with participants
recruited from Amazon Mechanical Turk, a crowdsourcing
marketplace. We collect both teamwork performance data
as well as surveys to gauge participants' trust in
their agent teammates. The results show that positive
(negative) past experience increases (decreases) human
trust in agent teammates; lack of past experience leads
to higher trust levels compared to positive past
experience; positive (negative) past experience
facilitates (hinders) reliance on agent teammates; the
relationship between trust in and reliance on agent
teammates is not always correlated. These findings
provide clear and significant evidence of the influence
of key factors on human trust in virtual agent
teammates and enhance our understanding of the changes
in human trust in peer-level agent teammates with

Moreover, they place an interpretation burden that does

several pairwise trust mechanisms have been proposed,
no empirical research examines trust score influence on

a partner trust score and/or ID on participants'

score availability has the same effect as an ID to
improve cooperation as measured by sending behavior and
receiver response. Excellent models based on the trust
score predict sender behavior and document participant
sensitivity to the provision of partner information.
Models based on the trust score for recipient behavior
have some predictive ability regarding trustworthiness,
but suggest the need for more complex functions
relating experience to participant response. We
conclude that the parameters of a trust score,
including pairwise interactions and betrayal, influence
the different roles of participants in the trust game
differently, but complement traditional ID and have the
advantage of scalability.",

Furthermore, we provide suggestions on how to improve

to filter the tweets related to the stock market as an
example target domain. While social media sentiment
analysis has been on the rise over the past decade, our
trust filters enhance conventional sentiment analysis
methods and provide more accurate prediction of the

Referred to as network effects, such an intrinsic
benefit becomes more significant as more users join and
contribute to the crowdsourcing system. But should a
crowdsourcer design her extrinsic rewards differently
when such network effects are taken into consideration?
In this article, we incorporate network effects as a
contributing factor to intrinsic rewards, and study its

that the number of participating users and their
contributions to the crowdsourcing system evolve to a
steady equilibrium, thanks to subtle interactions
between intrinsic rewards due to network effects and
extrinsic rewards offered by the crowdsourcer. Taken
network effects into consideration, we design
progressively more sophisticated extrinsic reward
mechanisms, and propose new and optimal strategies for
a crowdsourcer to obtain a higher utility. Through

in their databases are growing enormously. Web
databases retrieve relevant information in response to
users' queries; the retrieved information is encoded in
dynamically generated web pages as structured data
records. Identifying and extracting retrieved data
records is a fundamental task for many applications,
such as competitive intelligence and comparison
shopping. This task is challenging due to the complex
underlying structure of such web pages and the
existence of irrelevant information. Numerous
approaches have been introduced to address this
problem, but most of them are HTML-dependent solutions
that may no longer be functional with the continuous
development of HTML. Although a few vision-based
techniques have been introduced, various issues exist
that inhibit their performance. To overcome this, we
propose a novel visual approach, i.e.,
programming-language-independent, for automatically
extracting structured web data. The proposed approach
makes full use of the natural human tendency of visual
object perception and the Gestalt laws of grouping. The
extraction system consists of two tasks: (1) data
record extraction, where we apply three of the Gestalt
laws (i.e., laws of continuity, proximity, and
similarity), which are used to group the adjacently
aligned visually similar data records on a web page;
and (2) data item extraction and alignment, where we
employ the Gestalt law of similarity, which is utilized
to group the visually identical data items. Our
experiments upon large-scale test sets show that the
proposed system is highly effective and outperforms the
two state-of-art vision-based approaches, ViDE and

of differentiated pricing for the Internet should not
only consider congestion, but more importantly, it
should provide application specific treatment to data
delivery. Formally, we propose an ``application-driven
pricing'' approach, where an ISP offers a number of
service classes in terms of a guaranteed quality of
service and announces a unit usage price for each
class, and content providers are free to choose which
class to use depending on the requirement of their
applications. Unlike previous studies, we point out
that the revenue gain of multi-class pricing under our
scheme can be significant. This is because we capture
important aspects of application heterogeneity and take
the quality of service and price as control knobs. We
identify key factors that impact the revenue gain and
reveal fundamental understandings on when and why an
application-driven multi-class pricing can
significantly increase the revenue of ISPs.",

economic development mode of the whole society. This
trend has incurred a strong need to store and process
large amounts of sensitive data. The traditional data
storage and search solutions cannot meet such
requirements. To tackle this problem, in this article,
we proposed Consortium Blockchain-based Distributed
Secure Search (CBDSS) Scheme over encrypted data in
e-Commerce environment. By integrating the blockchain
and searchable encryption model, sensitive data can be
effectively protected. The consortium blockchain can
ensure that only authorized nodes can join the system.
To fairly assign nodes for the search tasks, we
developed an endorsement strategy in which two agent
roles are set up to divide and match the search tasks
with the virtual resources according to the load
capacity of each node. The security analysis and
experiments are conducted to evaluate the performance
of our proposed scheme. The evaluation results have
proved the reliability and security of our scheme over
existing methods.",

abstract = "Green Internet of things (GIoT) generally refers to a
new generation of Internet of things design concept. It
can save energy and reduce emissions, reduce
environmental pollution, waste of resources, and harm
to human body and environment, in which green smart
device (GSD) is a basic unit of GIoT for saving energy.
With the access of a large number of heterogeneous
bottom-layer GSDs in GIoT, user access and control of
GSDs have become more and more complicated. Since there
is no unified GSD management system, users need to
operate different GIoT applications and access
different GIoT cloud platforms when accessing and
controlling these heterogeneous GSDs. This fragmented
GSD management model not only increases the complexity
of user access and control for heterogeneous GSDs, but
also reduces the scalability of GSDs applications. To
address this issue, this article presents a
blockchain-empowered general GSD access control
framework, which provides users with a unified GSD
management platform. First, based on the World Wide Web
Consortium (W3C) decentralized identifiers (DIDs)
standard, users and GSD are issued visual identity
(VID). Then, we extended the GSD-DIDs protocol to
authenticate devices and users. Finally, based on the
characteristics of decentralization and non-tampering
of blockchain, a unified access control system for GSD
was designed, including the registration, granting, and
revoking of access rights. We implement and test on the
Raspberry Pi device and the FISCO-BCOS alliance chain.
The experimental results prove that the framework
provides a unified and feasible way for users to
achieve decentralized, lightweight, and fine-grained
access control of GSDs. The solution reduces the
complexity of accessing and controlling GSDs, enhances
the scalability of GSD applications, as well as
guarantees the credibility and immutability of
permission data and identity data during access.",

abstract = "Cryptocurrencies are increasingly popular. Even people
who are not experts have started to invest in these
assets, and nowadays, cryptocurrency exchanges process
transactions for over 100 billion US dollars per month.
Despite this, many cryptocurrencies have low liquidity
and are highly prone to market manipulation. This paper
performs an in-depth analysis of two market
manipulations organized by communities over the
Internet: The pump and dump and the crowd pump. The
pump and dump scheme is a fraud as old as the stock
market. Now, it has new vitality in the loosely
regulated market of cryptocurrencies. Groups of highly
coordinated people systematically arrange this scam,
usually on Telegram and Discord. We monitored these
groups for more than 3 years, detecting around 900
individual events. We report on three case studies
related to pump and dump groups. We leverage our unique
dataset of the verified pump and dumps to build a
machine learning model able to detect a pump and dump
in 25 seconds from the moment it starts, achieving the
results of 94.5\% of F1-score. Then, we move on to the
crowd pump, a new phenomenon that hit the news in the
first months of 2021, when a Reddit community inflated
the price of the GameStop stocks (GME) by over 1,900\%
on Wall Street, the world's largest stock exchange.
Later, other Reddit communities replicated the
operation on the cryptocurrency markets. The targets
were DogeCoin (DOGE) and Ripple (XRP). We reconstruct
how these operations developed and discuss differences
and analogies with the standard pump and dump. We
believe this study helps understand a widespread
phenomenon affecting cryptocurrency markets. The
detection algorithms we develop effectively detect
these events in real-time and helps investors stay out
of the market when these frauds are in action.",

abstract = "The blockchain technology has been gaining an
increasing popularity for the last years, and smart
contracts are being used for a growing number of
applications in several scenarios. The execution of
smart contracts on public blockchains can be invoked by
any user with a transaction, although in many scenarios
there would be the need for restricting the right of
executing smart contracts only to a restricted set of
users. To help deal with this issue, this article
proposes a system based on a popular access control
framework called RT, Role-based Trust Management, to
regulate smart contracts execution rights. The proposed
system, called Layer 2 DecentrAlized Role-based Trust
management (L2DART), implements the RT framework on a
public blockchain, and it is designed as a layer-2
technology that involves both on-chain and off-chain
functionalities to reduce the blockchain costs while
keeping blockchain auditability, i.e., immutability and
transparency. The on-chain costs of L2DART have been
evaluated on Ethereum and compared with a previous

of the modern web, it also constitutes a major tracking
and security vector, thus raising critical privacy and
security concerns. In this context, some browser
extensions propose to systematically block scripts
reported by crowdsourced trackers lists. However, this
solution heavily depends on the quality of these
built-in lists, which may be deprecated or incomplete,
thus exposing the visitor to unknown trackers. In this
article, we explore a different strategy by
investigating the benefits of disabling JavaScript in
the browser. More specifically, by adopting such a
strict policy, we aim to quantify the JavaScript
addiction of web elements composing a web page through
the observation of web breakages. As there is no
standard mechanism for detecting such breakages, we
introduce a framework to inspect several page features
when blocking JavaScript, that we deploy to analyze
6,384 pages, including landing and internal web pages.
We discover that 43\% of web pages are not strictly
dependent on JavaScript and that more than 67\% of
pages are likely to be usable as long as the visitor
only requires the content from the main section of the
page, for which the user most likely reached the page,
while reducing the number of tracking requests by 85\%
on average. Finally, we discuss the viability of
currently browsing the web without JavaScript and
detail multiple incentives for websites to be kept
usable without JavaScript.",

However, the rise of the Internet of Things (IoT) has
introduced new challenges for existing CH algorithms,
characterized by high memory usage and update overhead.
This article presents DxHash, a novel CH algorithm
based on repeated pseudo-random number generation.
DxHash offers significant benefits, including a
remarkably low memory footprint, high lookup
throughput, and minimal update overhead. Additionally,
we introduce a weighted variant of DxHash, enabling
adaptable weight adjustments to handle heterogeneous
load distribution. Through extensive evaluation, we
demonstrate that DxHash outperforms AnchorHash, a
state-of-the-art CH algorithm, in terms of the
reduction of up to 98.4\% in memory footprint and
comparable performance in lookup and update.",
